THE WATERS

Explore Upper Lough Erne and possible island stops

A single 90-minute session gives you time to paddle across the lake’s calm channels and, depending on the day and the group, to visit an island — a short, focused window on the lough’s quiet landscape.

THE GEAR

Accessible craft and group-ready kit

Share Discovery Village operates two Super Tankers that are suitable for people with disabilities or for groups, and they also offer SUP board hire to keep logistics simple.

THE WORKOUT

A relaxed sport that still works your core

SUP sits between surfing and gentle touring — relaxing on the water yet demanding enough that paddlers will feel the arms and core working through a 90-minute session.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

Expect a brisk safety briefing and kit-up, then steady paddling across calm sections of Upper Lough Erne: moments of low-effort glide broken by short bursts of power as you steer and balance. The session balances instruction, open-water time and the possibility of stepping ashore on an island if conditions and the group allow.
