Ireland
Welcome to Ireland
Too be honest i couldn't describe Ireland by myself so i enlisted the help of other Irish paddlers around the nation.When asked what they loved most about Irish paddling the responses were wide and varied some cited our steep creeks as our best paddling resource others the 'GAZILLION' surf spots along the west coast but the vast majority said it was the people,the craic,the unity and warmth of our close knit kayaking community
