Sea Kayaking
The best way to explore and enjoy up close the beauty and wildlife of Ardmore (other locations available upon request) at your leisure. Our experienced ICU (Irish canoe union) certified instructors will teach you the skills to help you get the most out of your trip and get up close with birds, seals & if your lucky dolphins and whales. Explore sea cliffs, caves, sea stacks and pay a visit to the wreck of the Samson Crane Barge.
If you feel like a little swimming and snorkelling during a trip, we have a fleet of sit on top sea kayaks, which will allow you at your leisure to hop in and explore the underwater wildlife and scenery.
