The first CORKUMNAVIGATION will take place on Tuesday 24th August, leaving Meitheal Mara, Proby’s Quay at 3.30pm. Atlantic Sea Kayaking will lead a fleet of curachs, kayaks, canoes and other small, shallow-draught boats in the inaugural CORKUMNAVIGATION.

Places on the water are limited but don’t worry as you can enjoy this event from the shore following the boats as they cross beneath the city’s bridges. See the programme below.
