The best of equipment

We use the very best of gear from Aqua Design and Palm Equipment to ensure complete comfort and safety for everybody who joins us on the water. Our Rafts are custom made with the River Liffey in mind. Stable, Sturdy and super comfy. Our Wetsuits, Cags, Buoyancy Aids and Helmets help to keep you safe and warm throughout the trip.

cafe
Chill at our riverside café

Our base at Mill Lane is a hidden gem. Standing on the banks of the river surrounded by green foliage and the sounds of rushing water it is hard to believe that we are only 7km from the heart of Dublin City. Enjoy a coffee or tea from the Mill Lane Café after your trip or enjoy an authentic stone baked Italian pizza cooked outside. Check out the pizza menu and to preorder please contact us.

Age restrictions

The minimum age for active participants is 8 years old. Active participants are considered to be those who are strong enough to help propel the raft or kayak down the river. A child's parent or guardian does not need to be participating on the water but must stay on the property for the duration of the session. Please get in touch for further details.

 

What should I bring?

We have everything you need to get on the water in comfort and safety. All you need is swimwear for under your wetsuit, old runners you don’t mind getting wet and a towel to dry off afterwards. You are very welcome to wear your own wetsuit if you prefer.

What's included?

We provide all of the necessary equipment and have full changing facilities, hot showers and on-site parking at our base in Mill Lane.
