A visit to Galway would not be complete without spending some time with a Galway Hooker in our workshop – the traditional wooden fishing boats that are synonymous with Galway since the 1800’s.
The Oliver family sail these boats today around Claddagh as their ancestors did, including their great grand uncle, King of the Claddagh Martin Oliver.
With the Galway Hooker Workshop you get to learn about the history of these remarkable wooden boats and gather an understanding of the restoration process by taking part in it.
This tour includes a 1 hour motorboat trip with Ciaran around Claddagh as he talks about life in the old fishing village where he and his ancestors grew up.
