Food in Portmagee
We have two Pubs in the village who offer fantastic food from morning to night, the two bars are the Fishermans bar and the other is called the Bridge Bar. However that is not the end of your options we have a wonderful restaurant, bang in the middle of the village called the moorings.

Visit PUFFINS on SKELLIG MICHAEL I Ireland
In this video, we visit Puffins on Skellig Michael in beautiful Ireland. We knew there would be puffins on Skellig Michael, but we weren't prepared for 10,000 plus birds. We didn't mind because they were cute and we enjoyed sharing the island with them.
Skellig Michael was also a filming location for Star Wars: The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi.

Boat tour around Skellig Michael | Skellig Michael Cruises
Boat tour around Skellig Michael visit:
Two days ago I went out for the first time to Skellig Michael with Skellig Michael Cruises. The day itself weather wise was spectacular. The village of Portmagee was drenched with warm May sunshine as I arrived. Met Brendan Devane our captain, who was in great spirits chatting to the passengers: I started talking to a few fellow voyagers a couple from the Uk and Michael from the US. The main stays of the conversations were that these holiday makers could not believe the natural beauty of Southkerry and Portmagee itself. But Iittle did they know that things were about to even get better.
So Brendan took the helm as the Marber therse 11 was ready to take us out to the great rocks. We all went quite together contemplating what the voyage had in store. So our boat tour around Skellig Michael had started.
The colourful village of Portmagee started to shrink as we made our way out of the harbour. The first point we passed of real historical was at foilhammerom the site of the first transatlantic communication between Europe and the US. As Brendan announced these fact people soon began to speak and start taking pictures left right and center. From this point on all conversation ceased. Everybody was too busy taking images of the most memorable and enjoyable trip I was ever on.
Marber Thersese
Now we had moved beyond the land and in the open Alantic as the Marber Therese 11 gliding over the sea. We could see bray tower behind us on island of Valentia. Also to our right we could see the cliffs and the site of Kerry cliffs which looked just as impressive from this angle. Brendan our captain was informing us that island to our left was the Puffin Island the home to almost 10,000 Atlantic puffins.
Returning home on the boat tour
The Marber therse started to head for home as we looked out the back we could see the islands starting to get a little smaller and now the Atlantic Ocean was still and beautiful blue flecting a wonderful summers day. We drew closer to land with every ripple again we could see the Puffin Island standing proud and just behind were the defiant Kerry Cliffs. Of to the left standing watch was Bray tower. Now in a moment we were back in the harbour it felt like a dream we were left spell bound on a beautiful summer's day on the Marber therse as she stole in to Portmagee.

Portmagee
Portmagee
Portmagee, is a little village in County Kerry, Ireland. The village is located on the tip of Iveragh peninsula south of Valentia Island. The name in Irish means 'the ferry', referring to its purpose as a crossing point to the island where access to Valentia Island is now via a bridge from Portmagee. The bridge is called the Maurice O'Neill Memorial Bridge.
Portmagee, origin of the name
The name of Portmagee is derived from a name of Captain Theobald Magee who was the notorious smuggler operated around 18th century. The man was an officer in the army of King James, the famous army in an Irish history. After retiring, captain Magee opted for mercantilism operating the countries of France, Portugal and here in Ireland.
By use of the primitive ways of capital accumulation plus the rugged coastline of south west Kerry was a perfect location to trade in contraband spirits, textiles and tea and tobacco was almost impossible to police and hence very lucrative in his operations. In this way he became much feared merchant tycoon around Ireland.
Captain Magee married a Bridget Morgell, who was the widow of a rich Dingle merchant and also the daughter of the then representative for Dingle, Thomas Crosbie. It is then understood that Magee's death was due to some exile imposed by the powerful MP
After the death of captain Magee in Lisbon monastery, his wife and sons took charge for the running of the family business.
Portmagee, Skellig Michael Cruises
Before Skellig Michael Cruises, many people who visited Portmagee were unable to enjoy Skellig Michael. This was due to various reasons such as having young families, age, disability or time constraints. But now we here at Skellig Michael cruises gives you the opportunity to see the Skellig Rocks from this unique perspective. It is through our tours 2 times daily and the duration of each boat tour is 2.5 hours.
