Adult and Teenager Courses

We are running Learn-to-Kayak courses in 5 week blocks throughout the summer. Classes start at 6:30 pm and finish at 9 pm for the 5 sessions spread over a 5 week period.

Our next Learn-to-Kayak course will begin on Monday, August 27th at 6:30 pm in O’Briensbridge, County Clare.

Click on the ‘Book Now’ button to see when the next course starts.

Both adults & teenagers are welcome to take part and beginners are most welcome. There is also no need to be able to swim.

Our Learn to Kayak Courses give you the training required to kayak safely and competently on flat water Grade II Rivers, as a member of a group being led, and to assist in basic rescues.

All of the participants on our Learn To Kayak courses will have the option of applying for a Euro Paddle Pass Certificate at the end of the course. This is an internationally recognised qualification and will cost extra.

"Well worth a visit! Group of ten of us went on the Limerick City historical kayak tour. The guys working here are lovely, gave us lots of info on the city and made us play hilarious games. We all jumped off the side of the river after our trip! It was great fun!"
