Hook Lighthouse
Your admission ticket allows for a guided tour of the lighthouse starting at your chosen late-morning time. Your guide will walk you through 800 years of the history of light-keeping at Hook Lighthouse, giving you insight to how its keepers lived throughout the ages. You will meet St Dubhan and William Marshall (the greatest Knight) on your journey, while your guide regales stories from the lighthouse's past. The tour will culminate in spectacular views from the Balcony of the Lighthouse. In clear weather you can see for miles, and in a storm the spray often reaches the top of the lighthouse!

5.00Very worthwhile venue to visit. I visited as part of a group of 25 people. Our guide, Paul, was excellent. He gave a great description of a working lighthouse and its surrounds. He was also very humorous and clear in his speech. John Ryan

5.00We visited Hook Lighthouse with friends and had an amazing experience. The tour was so engaging and interactive and our tour guide was exceptional. Her passion for preserving and passing on the legacy of this incredible place was palpable and so contagious, that we all left the place buzzing and wishing that the tour was twice as long, so we can continue to enjoy the atmosphere for a little longer. Thank you guys for what you do. We would highly recommend it to anyone who would like to dip there toes into the history of Ireland and get to experience standing under the roof of an incredible building that has stood proudly on the shores of Ireland for centuries.
Very enjoyable visit with guided tour. Highly recommend.
