HOZIER JOINED US ON A STAG LAST YEAR!

Last year, we welcomed Hozier and his mates for their Stag adventure day, and we were delighted to showcase the best of Connemara and Real Adventures.

The West of Ireland is the perfect destination for a Stag weekend. With its stunning coastline, beautiful mountains and lively nightlife, it’s no wonder it’s such a popular place for Stag parties.

A Stag do is all about creating lasting memories and having loads of fun with your closest group of friends.  Venture to the idyllic Connemara coast with your mates in tow and head off on an adventure for all the ages.  A Stag do is generally a full weekend or mini break, complete with activities.

Our most popular choice stag activities for groups is coasteering (check out the video below from some inspiration),do you fancy experiencing kayaking across some of Ireland’s most beautiful shores and visiting the local seals, are you determined to scale new heights on our rock climbing sessions or hit the surf with Galway’s only surf school, our activities have you covered.

We can also share great local knowledge — from the best places to eat and grab a pint to must-do activities across Connemara. If you’re travelling from Galway, we can point you towards the top spots for food, live music, and late-night craic, so you can round off your adventure with an unforgettable night out. We’ll help you create a Stag party the whole gang will never forget.
