Construction began in 1757 and was completed as far as the River Shannon in 1804. It is a historic and important part of the city, what better way to experience it than to coast along its waters!

It was a bit of a miserable day. But we only got rained on for the last 10 minutes. It was just lovely paddling along the canal. Nice and relaxing. My 10 and 12 yr old kids loved it. Would highly recommend. 2 men are very helpful and obliging

1 hour was plenty enough to enjoy Kayaking. Did get a bit tiring when tried to race but that was just a bit of fun, would def do it again!

Was good. Just wish the weather was better. The people who were also kayaking could've been friendlier. I kayaked with my friend but we felt Irish just were cliquish and didn't seem to want to talk to us.
