Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
There is no verified blanket Donegal marine-park visitor tag or general local-dive permit in the sources reviewed. However, permission to dive protected historic wrecks is a separate mandatory legal issue. Local operator fares shown here are historical published examples: the technical booking pages include conflicting rates and some extra charges. Check a complete current quote with insurance, equipment, gases, transport, weather-cancellation and any regulatory licence itemized before paying.
