Island Town Dinner and Cruise, Enniskillen

What to Expect

Erne Tours pairs a cruise around Enniskillen with dinner in the town, running until 30 August 2026. Boats leave the Round O Jetty at 4:15pm and take a relaxed loop around Ireland’s only island town, the historic centre of Enniskillen sitting on an island in the River Erne between Upper and Lower Lough Erne, aboard the MV Kestrel. The sailing runs with commentary on the water, the castle and the surrounding lough shore, and lasts long enough to see the town from the angle most visitors never do.

Dinner follows the same evening at one of three participating restaurants, chosen when you book: The Westville Hotel, The Firehouse or The Crowes Nest, all in the town centre. That structure holds the price at £35 per person for the combined cruise and meal and leaves guests free to pick the kitchen they prefer rather than being routed into a set venue. An optional overnight package at The Westville Hotel adds a room and breakfast for anyone travelling in for the evening. The MV Kestrel is Erne Tours’ main passenger boat and the company has been running Lough Erne sailings for 50 years, so the cruise half is a long-standing fixture rather than a seasonal novelty. Sailings depend on availability and weather, so book ahead rather than turning up at the jetty.

Getting There

The Round O Jetty is at Brook Park on the western edge of Enniskillen, along the lough shore off the Derrygonnelly Road, with a large free car park beside the jetty. The three dinner venues are all in the town centre, a walk of about 15 minutes back from the jetty or a short taxi ride. Enniskillen is reached on the A4 from Belfast, Dungannon and Sligo and on the A32 from Omagh, with the bus station on Wellington Road in the centre of town.
