All done; all gone...

All done; all gone...

All that's left is an empty spot on the sidewalk and some forlorn lavender plants.

Thanks to these three nice French guys who did, probably, the last kayak trip of 2025 :)

Kayaking is available over the coming holidays, but in general our paddling season is over for a couple of months.

Massive thanks to everyone who came out kayaking with myself, Hester and William over the year; thank you to Dora who kept the show on the road; and thanks to the likes of Eccles Hotel & Spa, Glengarriff Hostel, Glengarriff Park Hotel for giving beds to our customers - or simply sending people our way. And all the other amazing Glengarriff accommodations!

Brilliant summer :)

December Sea Kayaking...

If you look carefully at the seal photo, you'll see the steam coming off the seal on rock top :)

We use this model for coaching outdoor sports, and overcoming an obstacle in say your rock climbing or kayaking.

However apparently it can be used with a troublesome partner or child also 😅
