Excellent and informative boat trip
Great little trip around the bay to point out the famous tree and then landing on Ruby for a walk with the skipper who told us some of the history and pointed out landmarks and nature. Really enjoyed, relaxing and informative.

Great little trip
Great little trip. Includes boat ride there and back. Walk on the island. All with knowledgeable captain and his commentary. We took a 7 month old baby and was easily Ok with him (in a back pack, not buggy)

Ruby Island
Great wee island and the guide was very informative.

Not that special
To be honest it was boring. Just 5 minutes by boat to a small island where there's literally nothing. Ok a nice view maybe, but that's it. Would not recommend it.

Ruby Island
Great Little trip for the price. The guide was very informative with local knowledge. The walk even though short was uphill for a while, something to consider if you are thinking of taking the trip but there are seats at the jetty if you just want the scenery
