The rivers are some of the cleanest waters in Europe and there is no commercial traffic to interrupt the tranquil atmosphere. Holiday traffic is light enough to ensure pleasurable cruising for everyone…and pleasurable it is. Banked by gentle green countryside, these reed-lined lake-adorned waterways offer peace and the opportunity to study the wonderful wildlife which thrives in this pure environment.
The main areas for holiday cruising in Ireland are the lordly Shannon, navigable from Lough Key, bounded by the Curlew Mountains through Lough Ree and Lough Derg to Killaloe, and the Grand Canal connecting Dublin with the Barrow and the Shannon.
Experience in handling a boat is an advantage but not necessary. The captain should be over 21 years and the controls must be understood by at least two people. No license is required and after half an hour's free tuition, or as much as you feel you need, you can start exploring the enchanting rivers and lakes with their fascinating waterside towns and villages.
