Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My wife and I went Kayaking and Coasteering at Urchin adventure. Our guide Pat exceeded our expectation so much. We both had such a great time. I would highly recommend Urchin Adventures as they were very good at understand what we were expecting and trying to do everything they could to meet those expectations.

We did sea Kayaking as part of a package with the Cliff House Hotel and it was just fantastic.
We got lucky and were able to have what was essentially a private tour of just my partner and I and Pat from Urchin Adventures who was brilliant! He told us all about the area, brought us up close with the stranded barge that landed in Ardmore in 1987 and we shared our mutual love for rock music.
I would 100% recommend taking the Kayaking trip and also a few pints in the Bar afterward.

Fantastic kayaking session!
We were lucky enough to see 2 dolphins, a seal and many other types of wildlife along the way. Our instructor Evan was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, the history of the area and much more!
The centre is in a great location, easy to access and right beside bar and restaurant for food and drinks after a great experience outdoors.
Thank you Evan and Pat for a wonderful experience!

Went on the 3hr guided tour with our guide Paudie today. The time shot by and Paudie was a fantastic guide. As not a keen water sports man was apprehensive but felt completely safe in his hands. Lovely trip exploring the shoreline from the sea going into caves and through narrow gaps in the rocks . Highly recommended and defintely a highlight of our staycation.

I have been on a few kayaking trips on my travels, although I am still a novice. Ronan our guide a native of Cork made this our most enjoyable with his anecdotes and extensive knowledge of the very impressive local geology, wildlife and history. The 3 hour trip passed in a flash. I cannot wait to come back

FUN & LAUGHTER . Evan brought out a group of 5 today and my 2 kids just loved it and had never paddle boarded before. Evan called them all by name and played games which of course meant they all ended in the water but all I could see from shore was screaming ,laughing and general feeling of I'm on my holidays ! Evan thank you and to the full crew for friendly , easy to book and deal with from start to finish. We will certainly be back again.fanastic 2 hrs today.

Had an amazing sea kayaking trip with a fantastic Instructor Pat. He made sure we new the basics to ensure we were always safe, guided us through some great water passages close to the cliff and out into the bay to safely experience some bigger sea movements. But the real thrill was seeing the variety of sea wildlife capped by a rare sighting of Bluefin Tuna leaping out of the water chasing shoals of fish.

Absolutely loved this. Pat and Jack were really helpful and interesting, and totally put me, a complete beginner, at my ease. Wetsuits and a changing room are provided, along with buoyancy aids. There was a very informative demo on the sand before we hit the water, and I felt safe throughout the trip. The scenery us beautiful and we saw dolphins. I'll definitely do this again and would highly recommend it.

We spent a tough but really special afternoon kayaking with Luke. We were a mixed ability group but Luke managed to make the experience great fun for us all.
The tide gave us the opportunity to explore the wreck and the near by caves. We were joined by a seal cub, whilst we explored the bay, who was clearly as interested in what we were up to as we were enchanted by it.
Luke shared local history and pointed out marine life along the way
We had walked the coastal path in the morning so it was rewarding to see the cliff from the water in the afternoon

Hello I'm coming from Dubai in 3 weeks with my BF to Waterford. I'd like to arrange an adventure day for him, he's from WF but I wanted to surprise him. I'm not familiar with the area, but I'm thinking hiking, at sunset if possible, sea kayak... Are you able to arrange 1/2 day activities please?

Hi there,
I am thinking of bringing my two lads (19 and 16) down to you on Sat 13th August. We are staying in north Wexford (Morriscastle camping). Do you have any sea kayaking sessions available for that day? We are novices (only one brief go before).
Thanks
Paul
