For those who want to get a real taste of the wild Atlantic Way, how about heading wesht and having a look at our surfing packages in locations like Castlegregory, Dingle, Killarney, Sligo and Westport for your hen party.

For those who prefer to stay slightly drier but still want to be on the water, kayaking is the perfect option for your hen do. In boats of one or two hens, you and the girls can enjoy a spin around Galway Bay or a paddle through sea caves at Dingle harbour.
