We are dedicated to all forms of paddling and welcome all NUIG/GMIT students. Our club facilitates everyone from complete beginners to elite paddlers and our goal is to promote the sport of kayaking.

The Club aims to introduce everyone to the sport of kayaking, and caters for every level of skill, from complete beginner to expert paddling. The NUIG/GMIT Kayak Club has a reputation for being one of the most social clubs on campus. As well as regular talks about various kayaking topics in Galway, we run some great river trips. The activities we run include beginner sessions, intermediate sessions, Irish Canoe Union assessments, day trips, weekend trips, rescue, safety, first aid and kayak instructor courses - not to mention a hectic social calendar! In addition to these, we run pool sessions once a week.
