I did a so-called beginner kayak course wit these guys in June 2024. On that course, whilst doing an emergency manoeuvre as per instructions, I broke my right femur. I was upside down & 6 ft under water when this happened. I was rushed to the hospital after the club phoned for an ambulance. But that was only after I screamed for them to do so. They initially told me it was probably just a 'leg spasm'. I was operated in hospital the next day. In addition to the excruciating agony I was in that day and for some time afterwards I incurred several medical expenses and needed time off work not to mention how it altered my life at that time and for some time afterwards. I heard nothing from the club, in fact they, despite me being a member, they completely washed their hands of me. I have been in touch with them and Canoe Ireland on a few occasions and they have both promised to look into it. If they actually did even that much I don't really know. They certainly did not get back to me with any meaningful response or solution. It's up to you how you would feel joining a club like this or taking a course with a club like that.

Set on along a beautiful 3km section of the River Liffey overlooking Palmerstown Weir and bounded upstream by the Wrens Nest weir. The club hosts many paddle sport disciplines - open Canadian canoes, canoe and kayak slalom, polo, marathon/sprint, wild water racing, paddle boarding and is an ideal location for learning and improving all-year round.
