River Cruising

Corrib Princess. A lovely way to spend a fine afternoon is to take a Corrib Cruise from Wood Quay, behind the Town Hall Theatre, at the Rowing Club; it lasts 1½ hours and travels 8 km (5 miles) up the River Corrib and about 6 km (4 miles) around Lough Corrib. There's a bar on board, tea and coffee, and a commentary. The trip costs €17, and boats depart daily at 12:30 and 2:30 pm from May through September, with an additional departure at 4:30 pm July through August (except Saturday). You can also rent the boat for an evening. Wood Quay, Galway City, Co. Galway. 091/563--846 ; www.corribprincess.ie.
