Nature blended with outdoor fun
Supported through the LEADER programme
Smugglers Cove Adventure Centre in Rosscarbery, Cork, offers a variety of family-friendly outdoor activities such as tubing, adventure golf, and a large corn maze. Built on the idea of blending fun with nature, Smugglers Cove has become a favourite destination for visitors across South and West Cork since it opened.
With support from SECAD through the LEADER Programme, the centre expanded its attractions and improved facilities, greatly enhancing the visitor experience. This investment transformed Smugglers Cove into a vibrant community hub, welcoming families, schools, and youth groups for safe and exciting adventures. Today, it remains a vital part of rural Cork life, providing outdoor fun for all ages.
