A day was had 🤩🌊

A huge thank you to the lads from Derek Nolan Ken for having us be part of such a brilliant Seadoo Dealer Day in Garrykennedy on the 7th June.

It was fantastic to see so many people come along, enjoy the atmosphere, learn more about safety on the water, and get a look at some incredible machines. We were delighted to be there providing the BBQ, drinks and good food while everyone enjoyed a great day by the lake. 🥂

Here’s to plenty more summer adventures, sunshine, and memories made on the water 🌞🌊🍻

What a start to the season it’s been. ☀️✨

The last couple months have been filled with celebrations of every kind… confirmations, communions, christenings, weddings, Day 2 festivities, birthdays, family gatherings, special occasions and reunions with loved ones travelling from all corners of the world 🌎

Throw in a little Irish sunshine and that beautiful May heatwave, and there truly was no better place to be than enjoying good food, great company and long afternoons in the Larkins garden overlooking the water ✨

Seeing families, friends and visitors make memories here is what it’s all about, and we’re so grateful that you choose to celebrate with us.

And the best part? We’re only getting started.

Summer is shaping up to be our busiest and most exciting yet, with plenty more special occasions, events and unforgettable moments still to come 🥹

If you have a celebration coming up, or you’d like to reserve your favourite table for lunch or dinner, we’d love to welcome you.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Here’s to a fantastic season ahead. 🥂
