Half Day Seal Watching by Kayak for €13 With The West Cork Sailing and Powerboating Centre (€38 Value)

Seals were used throughout the early medieval period for the official authorisation of important documents, until someone discovered that otters were cheaper and more cooperative. Seal the deal with today’s Citydeal: for €13 instead of €38 get three hours of seal watching in a kayak with West Cork Sailing and Powerboating Centre.

The West Cork Sailing and Powerboating Centre has been sending swell-hardy seadogs for a splash in Bantry Bay and beyond for 13 years, providing aquatic activities from Adrigole Harbour that range from training commercial yachtmasters to providing part-time treasure hunters with sufficient vessels to seek out their fortune. Adrigole Harbour’s waterfall is the highest in Ireland and the British Isles, and is a favourite showering spot for seals nationwide. To the north of the harbour looms Hungry Hill, the highest of the Caha Mountains.

CityDeal seal enthusiasts will be provided with wetsuits before they paddle out into the sheltered harbour to soak up the views from the self-bailing kayaks. Paddlers get three hours on the water, and the seals are friendly and like to be sung to, so it might be best to prepare a few scales before setting out.
