Nevsail Watersports were forced to cancel weekend bookings with owner Dave Neville outlining their disappointment, “So so gutted and so damaging to all of Kilkee and Co Clare. We had to cancel groups all weekend but we have decided to try and keep positive and move the Watersports for the kids and teenagers booked into the Kilkee watersports camps to Carrigaholt until things go back to normal and are hopefully signed off by Wednesday as being safe to operate from again”.
