Fun for Kids
When it comes to having fun, Waterford is full to the brim with exciting things to see and do for all the family!
Our miles and miles of beaches are great for swimming, exploring rock pools and all sorts of beach fun. There is also plenty of water activities to be enjoyed, including sea paddling and surfing, with programmes designed especially for kids.
If you like to keep your feet dry, there are adventure centres and specialist providers that offer activities such as rock climbing and quad biking.
Throughout the year there are plenty of festivals including some that are tailored especially for kids, such as Sprog in Waterford.
Because we don’t want your holiday fun to stop on a rainy day, there’s plenty to do indoors as well. From 10-pin bowling, skating and waterslides, to state of the art play centres, the whole family will be entertained all day, whatever the weather!
