Arlene Gaughan and Michael Keane of Blacksod Sea Safari celebrate their awards success with social influencer Joshua Nueva at the Sugar Club in Dublin.
Blacksod Sea Safari, the family-run business renowned for its thrilling boating excursions and wildlife watching tours, has been honoured with the prestigious Escape/Provider of the Year award at the Outsider.ie People of the Year Awards. The award, presented in the Best Outdoor Escape category and supported by Vagabond Tours, was determined through a public vote.
The annual Outsider.ie awards ceremony took place at the Sugar Club in Dublin.
“We started this business about three years ago and it has been an amazing success story,” said Michael Keane who runs Blacksod Sea Safaris together with Arlene Gaughan.
Blacksod Sea Safaris has quickly become synonymous with fun, flexible, and memorable adventures, offering a range of tours from day trips to the abandoned Inishkea Islands to coastal cruises below the majestic Cliffs of Croaghaun and whale watching expeditions.
Mairéad Melody Carr, Manager of Mayo North Tourism, extended warm congratulations to Michael Keane, the proud owner of BSS.
“Adventure activity providers, like Blacksod Sea Safaris, play a pivotal role in enhancing tourism in North Mayo. Their unique and thrilling experiences not only attract visitors but also showcase the natural beauty and vibrant spirit of our region.”
