Shannon River Cruise to Garrykennedy on Lough Derg

This is our Shannon River cruise across Lough Derg to the beautiful village of Garrykennedy. Any River Shannon cruise will take in at least some lake or wide river portion. Really the River Shannon is a whole bunch of lakes joined together with river stretches!
Garrykennedy is probably one of the most popular moorings on Lough Derg. It's a small village with two pubs, one of which has a traditional thatched roof and serves excellent food. Surprisingly there is no shop in Garrykennedy, there is however plenty atmosphere all of which lends a good feeling to the place.
Check out our shop at www.driftwood.tv/shop where you get your hands on our book "Driftwood from the Shannon to the Marne" the humorous account of our first ever venture into the sea, and on to the French inland waterways.

    Hi Ger93, Glad you enjoy the vlogs, If the sun is out you should take a short detour into Carnadoe lakes. Really beautiful place. But there are no shops there so stock up first. There is a pub in Grange that does food Fri Sat & Sun. Hope you have a great holiday 👍
