About this Currach Activity

The HQ2O Currach programme is built around three connected elements: build, lanugage and rowing. Our Currachs have been handcrafted specifically for use on the River Liffey. We offer currach rowing sessions ranging from relaxed ‘come and have a go’ experiences for beginners, to more focused sessions for those with experience who want to develop technique, boat handling and crew skills.
