LET’S Go Hydro in Carryduff, Ireland’s largest water sport, activity and accommodation resort, has expanded, adding a new aqua rugby pitch.
The 6,000 sq ft floating pitch is the first permanent outdoor aqua rugby facility in the UK and Ireland and coincides with the opening of a new cable water sports park at the resort.
The additional leisure facilities at the complex at Knockbracken Reservoir represent an additional £1 million investment.
A popular choice for corporate team building, aqua rugby is a water-based take on the traditional sport and involves participants attempting to score a try by splashing into the water, while the new cable park will offer visitors a chance to experience wake-boarding, kneeboarding and tubing.
Let’s Go Hydro (www.letsgohydro.com) has doubled in size to become a permanent fixture after attracting more than 50,000 visitors last year within a four-month period.
In addition to the new water-based leisure facilities that join the existing Aqua Park and Puddle Park, the resort also offers overnight accommodation for up to 200 guests with a range of luxury glamping pods, a floating lake pod, a safari lodge and forest domes.
