Membership policy:

As kayaking is a water sport with some inherent risk, we have to be careful about taking on new members who have no experience – we have to have instructors available to work with new members to develop a safe set of skills to take part in the sport. At the moment we don’t have enough instructors so we are restricted in opening up our club to new members with no experience. We can take applications from people who have the Canoeing Ireland level 2 kayaking skills qualification though, as this allows paddlers at level 2 to get out on the water together without requiring an instructor to be present. If you have this and want to join, please get in touch via our “contact” page or on social media.

We do want to run level 2 kayaking skills courses ourselves to allow new members join, and are currently in planning to have one later in 2024, so please keep an eye on our website and our social media for information on that!
