点评:I have done some kayaking and Sea Synergy seemed to match my interests, so I booked for a 2 hour outing on the River Fertha by Cahersiveen. After sorting out kit for the participants and some instruction, we launched from the marina and paddled downstream. The kayaks were highly manoeuverable sit-on tops and as the weather was fine, paddling was very easy. Our leaders were knowledgeable about the local geology, geography and natural history and pointed out various features. We landed at Mannix Point to examine stones deposited by an ancient volcanic eruption and spot the remains of the volcano before going further downstream. Good views were had of Ballycarbery Castle. The water was shallow at times and it was possible to pick out oyster trestles, fish and crabs below us. We paddled up the channel north of Foughil Island where, as the tide had turned, there was a little current. On the return we heard some of the history of Cahersiveen barracks before landing back at the marina. Seldom has 2 hours passed so quickly and I fully recommend this activity.
翻译:我玩过一些皮划艇,Sea Synergy 似乎很符合我的兴趣,所以我预订了在凯尔西文 (Cahersiveen) 附近的费尔塔河 (Fertha) 进行两小时的皮划艇之旅。在为参与者整理好装备并接受一些指导后,我们从码头出发,顺流而下。皮划艇是高度灵活的坐式皮划艇,而且天气晴朗,划桨非常轻松。我们的领队对当地的地质、地理和自然历史了如指掌,并向我们介绍了各种特色。我们在曼尼克斯角 (Mannix Point) 登陆,检查了古代火山喷发留下的岩石,并在继续顺流而下之前发现了火山遗迹。巴利卡贝里城堡 (Ballycarbery Castle) 的美景尽收眼底。水有时很浅,可以看到下方的牡蛎支架、鱼和螃蟹。我们沿着福吉尔岛 (Foughil Island) 北部的水道逆流而上,那里由于潮水已经转向,水流微弱。回程途中,我们听了一些关于凯尔西文兵营的历史介绍,然后才返回码头。很少有两个小时过得这么快,我强烈推荐这项活动。
