    Hi,
    I'm just wondering if anyone knows how much it costs to get a boat from Bunbeg to Tory Island and back. I've checked the website and I cant find any pricing so that leads me to believe that its quite expensive. Also does anyone know if bicycles are allowed on board the boat.
    Thanks in advance

    I'm not sure but you can ask them yourself on the Tory Fast Ferry Facebook page.

    its really early in the morning that it goes from Bunbeg, and its a very long journey. It'd be Tor Mor you'd be looking for not the fast ferry for that. It goes back at 6ish i think.

    If you can drive for a bit it goes from magherorty (or however its spelt) it runs at 11ish each day and the fast ferry goes from there too. you can bring bikes on too or you can rent them there, i'll get both boat numbers tomorrow

    Got over recently from magheraroarty pier for €20 return, leaves magheraroarty at 11.30am, 1.30pm, 5.00pm & 7.00pm and returns from tory at 9.30am, 10.30am, 4.00pm & 6.00pm. There was bags of coal, food deliveries, bags and dogs coming over so I can't see why they wouldn't allow bikes, no harm ringing them to check with them just to be sure. If you want the number I can pm it to you, not sure if I'm allowed post it. The fast ferry was advertsied as €15 midweek return, much smaller boat so not sure if they'd allow bikes, think they are more restricted with times.
