Insurance costs could ruin eco-tourism industry, Cork business owners claim
The couple who run one of Ireland's oldest dive schools and whale-watching businesses has pleaded with the government to tackle the insurance crisis and save the eco-tourism industry.
Rianne and Jerry Smith who run Aquaventures in Baltimore, West Cork, said they have just days to find a new insurer for their main boat, Wave Chieftan, after one of the last insurance firms covering the sector pulled out of the Irish market.
