We forgot a towel and it was raining. The wetsuits kept you comfortable but a towel at the end would have been nice. The kayak itself was very enjoyable. Danny did a great job explaining everything before we started and stayed with the group without having to the reins too tight. Would highly recommend recommend.

My guide was amazing! Being in the cove, with the wild Atlantic at our mouth, was quite exhilarating! A baby seal followed us pretty closely, and kept peeking at us for attention, like a little puppy!
We had inclement weather, that developed while we were on the water, with lots of current, and yet our guide knew what to do without cutting our tour short.
I would definitely do again!!
Dave was an excellent guide who accommodated all abilities and ages seemlessly and safely. I loved him pointing out the different seaweeds, the hares racing on the beach, the seals he spotted and explaining why Connemara's sands are white. I felt "in" the view not looking at the view and the colours out on the water were wonderful. There could have been a personal email explaining about kit perhaps and timings but this was amazing for me. Thank you Dave.

Steve took very good care of us! Happy to spot some plovers and herons. And Connemara Bay is so clean and beautiful. We were blessed with sun as well!
The guides, Danny and. Clare were so helpful. the weather was cold but wetsuits really kept us warm. scenic and so fun! everyone should go it!
c'était une première pour nous, l'animateur a été super et plus d'humour. Nous sommes allés sur une plage accessible qu'un kayak et nous nous sommes baignés. Juste génial.
