Report: https://directindex.org/r/mariner.ie
Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
National Maritime Museum of Ireland is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open National Maritime Museum of Ireland's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.mariner.ie/book-tickets/ (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +353 1 214 3964
- Address: Haigh Terrace A96C8X7 Dún Laoghaire
- Hours, from OpenStreetMap · Overture Maps: Mon–Sun 11:00–17:00

## Nearby, also direct
Places near National Maritime Museum of Ireland that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Goat Boat Tours (170 m): https://directindex.org/r/goatboat.ie
- Sunway Holidays (820 m): https://directindex.org/r/sunway.ie
- James Joyce Tower and Museum (1.3 km): https://directindex.org/r/joycetower.ie

## What to fix first
- **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 0035312800969, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +353 1 214 3964. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2022.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
