The Calf, Cow and Bull Rocks “End of the World”Great trip Out.

The Calf rock has the remains of a Cast Iron Lighthouse on it, google it to read the story about the brave men who escaped with their lives after a storm. The light house was then temporarily placed on the end of Dursey Island whilst the next one and still running was placed on Bull Rock.

Dizzy on Dursey

Saturday 07/05/2016 Richie

Dizzy on Dursey with a short set of flights to make a little film. Was quite windy but we had some fun putting it together. A nice invitation to Dursey to visit some friends and enjoy a lovely evening meal. There is something very special about staying on the island rather than having to rush off on the cable car. Visit the Dursey website here. If you need your own film made with a drone feel free to contact Balooz.

Watch the Dizzy Video here.

Dursey Festival

Monday 15/06/2015 Richie

Dursey Festival 2015 a well organised weekend but unfortunately let down by the cable car running on Winter hours. Hundreds were turned away from the island. Which was a great shame as there was plenty to do and see on the Island. Even the mayor of Cork made it over and was almost stuck on the island. The cable car is Ireland’s only cable car and as such is a big tourist draw to the area. Which is well in need of visitors. In any case those that made it had a great time and there were quite a few people sleeping over on the Saturday night. Thanks to the Islanders for their hospitality.
