Highlights

Paddleboarding is a fun, accessible way to get on the water and improve your fitness at the same time. A 2-hour paddleboarding free roam with demo in Galway. You’ll paddle on stable inflatable boards with a paddle, lifejacket, wetsuit, and boots provided. Get fitted with your gear, then begin with the basics on land before heading onto the water. During the demo, you’ll learn how to position yourself on the board, hold the paddle efficiently, move forward smoothly, steer, turn, and stop with control. The instructor will provide a session route to follow based on the tides and weather conditions of the day. The experience ends back at the original meeting point, where you’ll return your equipment and get changed before continuing your day in Galway.

About Galway

Galway is a harbour city on Ireland's west coast, with a pedestrian old centre, traditional music, a seaside promenade and Connemara just to the west.

Galway stands where the River Corrib meets Galway Bay, and in the Middle Ages it was ruled by fourteen merchant families known as the Tribes, who built its stone houses and quays. The Spanish Arch recalls the trade with Spain, and Eyre Square, the Latin Quarter around Shop Street and Quay Street, and the Claddagh, a former fishing village that gave its name to the Claddagh ring, form the centre. The cathedral, consecrated in 1965, stands by the river.
