Brilliant fun at Clearsky last weekend. Coasteering and then an overnight stay, camping on Salt Island. Staff are friendly, helpful and safe without ruining the fun. Highly recommended, even if canoeing with a hangover is zero craic. More

Hi there Rudsy! Glad that you had a good weekend - I imagine you're not the only one who was struggling to paddle back on the morning after! Sounds like you all had a ball though and you were a great group to have in. Hope to see you all again in the summertime! More

We went as a family with our 2 children on the Sea Safari trip on Strangford Lough. It was absolutely great fun and the kids (not to mention the parents!) screamed with delight all the way round! It is a perfect way to see the beautiful Strangford lough and it's natural heritage and sea life, and Andy (our host) was... More

We had a fantastic night riding the mountain bike trails around the woods in castleward. The instuctor was very friendly and was able to give good advice about the area, he was also able to cater to the differing skill levels within the group. The rental equipment was of the best quality and was well maintained and the instructor was... More

Took my 2 daughters on the Sea Safari over Halloween mid term break. It was really interested and the staff were really friendly and make it really fun and interesting. Would definitely recommend this as an exciting alternative to the usual mid term trip to the cinema! More

I am from Northern Ireland and Co. Down, but even so found the Strangford Sea Safari to be very informative and great fun. Our skipper Andy was very knowledgeable and was both able and willing to answer all questions. To our surprise we did not feel seasick at all, nor did anyone else on our trip. We took the Whirlpool... More

Just spent weekend with Clearsky activities at Castleward. Saturday morning Coasteering. YOU HAVE TO DO THIS!! Weather was great and very calm. Eddie and Rory were our instructors and looked after us all, very professional but fun time. Went with my 15 yr old son for a bit of bonding time. Rock climbing and jumping off high cliffs into sea.... More

Just a short note to say that myself, my partner and two children (aged 7 and 4yrs) had a great time on the Sea Safari. Our guide made the day really enjoyable and good fun. Staff at Clearsky are lovely to deal with and I intend to contact them again in the near future to book another day out. More

I'm originally from Northern Ireland but had spent very little time around Strangford Lough, so yesterday's Sea Safari was not only great fun but really informative. We were in good hands with our skipper, Andy, and his knowledge of the area was excellent. I'd definitely recommend the clearsky Sea Safari and both my husband and I wish we were still... More

Wow Shivvy, sounds like you had an excellent time - we love to hear that customers have enjoyed themselves so much! Keep an eye on our events calendar (on the website) for next year's new trips - picnics on the Strangford Lough Islands as well as a trip to the Isle of Man! Look forward to seeing you again. More

My husband and I took our 2 young children on a Sea Safari and had a fantastic time. Our guide and skipper Andy was excellent. I would certainly recommend Clearsky Adventure to anyone. We learned so much about the lough and the wildlife that live there. More
