County Cork is situated in the South-West Region of Ireland and is the largest of all Irish counties. The climate here, like the rest of Ireland, is classified as a maritime climate, usually with cool summers, mild winters and abundant rainfall. Cork enchants visitors with its beautiful landscapes, historic towns and magnificent coastline. In addition, it provides a number of sporting and leisure activities to perform and remember forever.
Baltimore is a picturesque, fishing village that sits on the southwest coast of County Cork. Apart from the stunning, natural surroundings, Baltimore offers a rich variety of maritime activities to locals and visitors. Sea kayaking is very popular here, as the unspoilt coastline of Baltimore suits it perfectly. Kayakers of a reasonable fitness can paddle the clear waters of West Cork, admire the beauty and explore wonderful sea caves and lots of small islands.
Also, expect to see an abundance of marine life, including dolphins, seals, sea birds and even whales, if you are lucky enough. Water temperature ranges from 7°C/45°F in winter to a maximum of 15°C/59°F in summer and early autumn months.
The location hosts a kayak tour center that accommodates both beginners and experts. It should be noted that, all the gear and equipment are provided, so you should only bring your sunscreen and a dry change of clothes. Finally, sea kayaking here is an all year round activity, whether it is summer or winter, depending on the weather.
