What To Expect

Exploring the natural beauty of the Conneamara coastline and crystal clear water from a kayak is a breath-taking experience that can be enjoyed in a morning session, afternoon outing, or evening experience. Meeting at The Connemara sands hotel, you'll first take in the stunning views and crystal clear waters that greet you when arriving to the beach. After getting changed into your wetsuit you’ll be given a short safety brief and introduction to kayaking. We'll get on the water and practise the skills we learnt on shore before heading off along the coast. Along the way expect to see fabulous scenery and beautiful beaches. You'll think you've landed in another world. With a guaranteed best seat on the tour, you can sit back and enjoy the incredible views. Your professional guides will provide expert information about the sea life and history along the way. After the completion of your journey, you will head back to the beach and change out of the wetsuits in our on site changing rooms. Head back to your accommodation feeling a sense of accomplishment and euphoria from a day well spent

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.

Such a majestic awesome experience. A full 2 hours on the water paddling around the bay. It has to be the very best way to see how clear the water is and feel a connection with such a unique location. Highly recommended

We basically had a private tour, since it was still early in the season. Our instructor knew a lot about nature, so he pointed to animals and explained them to us. We were lucky to see many seals, some even followed us due to curiosity. Furthermore, we were very lucky with the weather, since there was heavy rain and even a bit of hail before we went on the tour.
Steve took very good care...

It was a great kayak tour and we really enjoyed it. The crystal-clear water is incredibly beautiful and the surrounding landscape is also impressive. The tour guides also gave us a great introduction to everything and accompanied us on the tour. We can highly recommend the tour.
Unreal scenery in a stunning bay surrounded by mountains. Magical!

Our kayaking trip was brilliant from start to finish. Danny looked after us so well. He was informative, caring and a pleasure to be with. The water was crystal clear, glistening in the sunshine with tones of blue and green, the sand was white and the views from the water were sensational. I have a totally new appreciation of seaweed now! The very best of days.
