Adventure Holidays in Ireland
Specialist Discovery Holidays in Ireland
Discovery Week
Embark on a unique personal journey in Ireland's magnificent Southwest. Enjoy a variety of exhilarating adventures and set off on a trail of self discovery that will provide you with a deeper understanding of who you are and what you want out of life.
Your afternoons will be spent exploring the delightful countryside of West Cork. Kayak to seal colonies, walk the gentle boreens of inhabited islands, and be awestruck by the majesty of the whale. Here you will get to know and understand the real Ireland, and see and enjoy it as only the locals can show you how.
In the mornings you will explore very different territory on a journey
of self-discovery with qualified Life Coach Con Hurley. With years experience
and a dedication to assisting individuals in realizing their dreams, Con
states, I am a motivator for goodness, happiness and positive change in
people and society. I work with people who want to achieve personal and
financial success. Their success is my business. In an informal, interactive,
small group atmosphere, Con will help you discover your true self, determine
what success in life means to you, and aid you in developing a plan to
achieve it.
Discovery Week is based in the stunning peninsula town of Baltimore, the main access point to the islands of Roaringwater Bay. This beautiful and colourful West Cork fishing village is renowned for its warm Irish hospitality and breathtaking scenery. Each evening its pubs and restaurants come alive with people, music and laughter. You will travel the world many times to find its equal.
