    Anyone out there into sea kayaking? Looking to give it a go, but hard to know where to start.. Kilkee or Ballyvaughan for instance.. (has to be in Clare)

    I'm an adult, so not looking for kid's adventure centers or anything, maybe a club if such a thing exists?

    thanks for any help!

    Thanks Clareman!

    I had seen that, but only the Kilrush adventure centre seemed to offer kayaking (and it seemed to be a kind of 'Delphi', ie for kids.) But I should ring them to find out..

    Was hoping that maybe someone on the boards might be into it themselves and be able to point me in the right direction...
