?? Activities and fun stuff for kids in Skibbereen, Bantry, Schull, Baltimore

Saoirsef

Hello I was wondering if anyone (teachers/parents/providers) can tell me of any children's fun things to do around Skibbereen or Baltimore or Bantry or Schull like in the community i.e. arts, crafts,horseriding, dance classes, singing, swimming, summer camps just general fun stuff for kids, whether it's afterschool clubs or activities that are only once a week would be of great help to me. I am looking for stuff to do for all ages from toddlers to teens?

It seems like the information is hard to find so I thought it would be better to ask people living locally who may know of these things

I know there is a very good leisure centre in Skibbereen I saw that on their website. Just baffled as to how to just entertain kids in general besides going for a walk, the park or a beach. Thanks in advance.?

The Celtic Ross in Rosscarbery and The Baltimore Hotel both have swimming pools and popular with kids. There's an kayaking business call Atlantic Sea Kayaking which is popular.

There's a horseriding school between Skibbereen and Baltimore. The sports centre also have soccer and tennis summer camps. There usually a Gaa Cúl Camp on in Skibbereen, not sure where though.

There's also ferry trips to Sherkin and Cape Clear.

There is a book by Cammy Harley which is called West Cork and Kerry for kids.
I highly recommend it as a source of information.
