The backstory to WAVE
WAVE is the brainchild of the Keane family, whose business, Ó’ Catháin Iasc Teo, is the main processor and exporter of fish in Dingle. They want visitors to explore the beautiful ocean off the Dingle coast that they know and love, using the latest virtual technology.
What is WAVE?
Wave is a family fun experience housed in a former fish processing plant in Dingle, Co. Kerry, WAVE enables you to discover the ocean world off the Dingle coast in a unique, immersive experience, seeing it through the eyes of the men and women who have fished off these shores for millennia. You will travel through a series of spaces housing large-scale projections and soundscapes, discovering the under-water sea life of Dingle Bay, where you meet Fungie, the Dingle Dolphin. Then travel on to explore the shipwrecks that lie beneath, and discover the perils that face those who go to sea. Enter a mythological land to uncover the myths and legends of the sea, and finally, be amazed as you get up close to majestic humpback whales and see them as never before.
Come and visit!
Opened in summer 2023 and located in the beautiful town of Dingle, WAVE immerses you in an underwater world of nature, mythology and history.
Dive into an experience like no other!
