Whale Watching off the south and southwest coast of Ireland has become a major tourist activity.
The waters around West Cork are clear and unpolluted, which makes them one of the richest sites in Europe for whale watching with a wide variety of species being seen for over half the year, including Fin Whales and Minke Whales. Humpback whales are seen off the southwest coast of Ireland and usually arrive during August or early autumn.While Minke Whales can be seen only a few kilometers off the Irish coast from May and Fin Whales join them in June or July.
