Sea Kayaking - Ireland

Sea Kayaking Ireland

I miss paddling in the West of Ireland. Note to any other padllers: If you're ever around the Old Head of Kinsale, look for the caves that pass right through. We found three, first spotted by noticing light coming from within the cliffs. A seal barked at me in one of them. There are other caves all up and down the west coast, arches too. Spectacular stuff.

Wow, that was 6 minutes of pure bliss! I dare say I'd be a little unnerved paddling such a narrow opening between the rock walls, especially with the flush. Seemed like quite a bit of water was flowing in and out!

[@supireland9906]

Beautiful video, thanks for sharing. I have only paddled the Slieve league cliffs in Donegal, that county is a dream place for seakayaking 😍.

[@alandoyleagain]

Superb footage, Frank. Looks like an incredible day out. Alan

You’ll probably not see this message after 8 years 🤷🏻‍♂️😂, but in case you do I want to say that I loved that, I was mesmerised. Thanks, from over the water here in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👋🏻

[@otpbdph01]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.

[@Fjgareavideos]

Maravilloso video, estupendo lugar con ese fantástico paisaje... enhorabuena a todos y gracias por hacernos disfrutar con esta grabación.

[@bastogne315]

Shearwater are the best fun to go out sea kayaking with. The stuff they get you to do is unreal.

[@Alexmcgruer3]

That looks so much like Newfoundland. Continental drift is proven. The accent in Fermews would confirm it. Great vid.

[@WillyRanger1]

Very enjoyable. Reminds me of my Channnel Island waters. All that's missing is a roll!

[@otpbdph01]

Yes, we have some superb kayaking in Ireland !

[@alteregoash]

and just think, as amazing as this video is it STILL doesn't capture just the amazing vast feeling of sea kayaking.

[@jix177]

[@ventingshow4995]

I was lucky enough to be kayaking and a whole group of manatees surrounded us. They were mating and going crazy, splashing in the water with little babies coming right up to the side of the kayak.

[@AdrianMulligan]
