MAGHERY COASTAL ADVENTURES
Every summer we run a kayaking programme for the local children in the community, teaching them how to kayak in a fun and safe way.
This is a progressive and ongoing programme with many of the kids returning each summer and learning how to paddle the more advanced closed cockpit kayaks and even sea kayaks, designed for longer open water journeys etc.
The annual local summer festivals, both the Maghery Festival and the Mary from Dungloe Festival, are always a great occasion within the community and during these festivals, Maghery Coastal Adventures always puts on special events as part of the festival programmes, allowing locals and visitors to take part in our activities.
We also work alongside the Maghery community centre, which provides us access to their facilities such as an indoor hall, cinema, changing rooms, football pitch and also the opportunity to offer hot meals as part of our group offerings.

Had a great coastal sea kayaking experience with Chris from Maghery Coastal Adventures today. 3 of us and a group family of 5 also. Chris showed us all the safety requirements of kayaking and gave us a helmet and life jacket. We headed off touring the Maghery coast and saw jellyfish herons and mackerel jumping out of the sea! Chris was very informative and told us about the local flora and fauna and local history also. I would highly recommend this tour and had great fun and enjoyment doing it.
We had a guided kayaking session with Stephen on Tuesday the 6th July. It was absolutely brilliant. Stephen was fantastic with our smallies (12 & 10); there were challenges, races, gorgeous Donegal scenary, and even a curious seal watching us. A lovely way to spend a couple of hours. Thanks Stephen.
I’ve been going on holiday to the Maghery area all my life, and this is the first time I’ve been out on the water. My 2 kids and I really enjoyed the kayaking with Stephen. Was a great instructor who also made it fun along the way. I would definitely recommend it!
Had a great evening paddle boarding at high tide in early August, 7-9pm. Instructor Joanna was fab and led us around the bay seal spotting. Highly recommend.
Myself and 3 others did Kayaking during our time in Donegal a few weeks back with the instructor Michael. The instructor was very knowledgeable of both the sport and the surroundings. He was really sound also which made the experience very enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend the company and the instructor any more. Thanks!
