  • Great Fun

    We went here as a big group, 4 adults & 9 children (aged from 7-16) and everyone of us had a fantastic time and are still talking about it. Everything, from checking in, to getting our wetsuits, to the safety talk and finally going out onto the inflatables was so well organised and efficient…

    Thrilling experience. for kids and adults… and at the same time manageable for parents that might not be as limber as their kids!

From the girl at reception to the girls handing out the wetsuits, to the girl making the hot chocolates, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Everyone felt very safe in the water and laughed from the moment they entered the water for the full hour until their time was up. Maynooth Ladies Football Team will be back soon for sure. Thank you for a brilliant morning.

 

Great place to go with a group

This is must do event for all the family! Absolutely a thrill minute. It felt perfectly safe at all times with plenty of safety marshals on hand. With the provided wet suits the water felt really fine [August 2022]. All the pontoons were great fun to climb/jump of slide off. Recommended for all ages.

Baysports water activities fun!

Drove down today with two boys under nine . From the first member of staff we met to last person everyone was so lovely , so helpful. The centre is very well run and could spot very easily staff on the water were highly trained and didn’t take any messing from anyone out there but this was done in a lovely manner ! Excellent day out highly recommend it ! Lovely to have such a well run & well maintained facility in ireland � well done guys .

We spent a very enjoyable afternoon at Baysports yesterday. 2parents and 2 adult children.
I haven’t laughed as much, as my kids tried, “successfully” to get me on that floating banana!!
The staff at every stage were fabulous, not rushed and plenty of them too, safety is paramount.
Had a relaxed bite to eat too bfre heading home.
Highly recommend. We will be back soon 😄

Bay sports brings laughter 😂

My 9 year old who doesn’t like the water was here yesterday on a school tour and I couldn’t believe when I got some photos he was in the kayak, and even went down the slides staff there are amazing and he had a wonderful day never thought he would go in but staff are so encouraging he cant swim but he didn’t need to with the life jacket and staff thank you so much for getting him over his fear of water I am so happy thanks.

Went here on Sunday with our family the staff where great and the facilities where fantastic. I would highly recommend it I’ve never laughed so much but also had the fear factor when you get to the top of the slides lol def worth the journey and will be back. Very well run and great to have something like this… family fun at its best.

Brilliant fun, very well organised.

We brought a group of 26 teens and adults to Baysports – check-in was fast and smooth, lots of space in the changing rooms, plenty of wetsuits in all sizes. The waterpark was great fun everyone had a blast!

Just brought a school tour here. Simply wonderful from start to finish. Lovely lovely staff, extremely well trained and highly organised, who were well able to handle energetic children. Everything timed to perfection with a super range of activities. Even the owner is on hand to welcome you, and remembers your name! Plus there is homemade apple tart on hand. It really doesn’t get any better than this place, could not recommend it highly enough!!! Well done guys, you are just superb!!!

As this was a unique experience for me I’ll give a review. Literally I’ve never worn a wet suit!
From start to end this experience is great fun. Loads of parking. Staff are all young enthusiastic people and fully engaged in your day. The moto is be safe BUT have fun. My son cannot swim but is confident in water and I was satisfied with his safety at all times with the life jacket on. The slides are excellent too, hard work to get to the top if you are not in peak fitness though!! Throw pride out and go to BAYSPORTS and you’ll laugh a lot like me.
