Darren’s Kayaks

January 4, 2014 by Dunmanus

Kayaks Bantry kayaking Sheep's Head - Things to Do

Kayak on the peaceful and sheltered waters of West Cork’s Dunmanus Bay with Darren’s Kayaks and explore the scenic coastline of the stunning Sheep’s Head peninsula

Whether you want a relaxing paddle taking in the scenery and wildlife of the beautiful Sheep’s Head coastline or a fast-paced fun ‘Pier to Mannion Island’ time trial, we are happy to accommodate you.

Dunmanus Bay in West Cork, lying between the Mizen and Sheep’s Head peninsulas, is the perfect place for kayaking.

In addition to mini-excursions and a personalised tuition service we also offer kayaks for rent. Kayak for an hour or two in Ahakista’s scenic inner harbour, or, if you wish, you can rent a kayak to take away and explore at your leisure. If you want to try your hand at kayak fishing or – for the more adventurous – kayak sailing, give Darren a call. We also offer an expert sales service if you are looking to buy a kayak of your own.
 

Location:Durrus, Co. Cork.
Opening Hours:Open 7 days a week but, as our office is often at sea, please phone for availability.
