Hi There,
Weather looks good for the remainder of the week. Water is still warm.
We'll try for a snorkel in Nohoval Cove at 11am on Saturday.
Weather:
Thursday, Friday and Saturday will continue mild and largely dry, with some hazy sunshine breaking through occasionally. There will be cloudier intervals also, with patches of rain and drizzle at times along Atlantic coasts and over Ulster for a time on Thursday. Temperatures will be a few degrees above average, with maximum values ranging between 16 and 20 Celsius, warmest further south, in mainly light to moderate southwesterly breezes. With near calm conditions fog patches may develop at night and in the early mornings, however the nights will be frost free.
Cheers, Don.
Directions to Nohoval Cove:
Go to Carrigaline.
Directions through Carrigaline: Go straight thru town centre. Go past
the Bank or Ireland and 100m after the pedestrian crossing you turn
left up the hill. (It looks like it's straight on)
Follow this road for a few miles. (It goes up a hill and then down a
hill.) At the next T-Junction turn left. 500m down the road you come to
Minane Bridge. Go over the bridge and take the next right hand turn.
Follow this road for a few miles. Go straight through each crossroads.
(Last one is a small bit skewed to the right). You eventually come to a
T-Junction with a School house on the left hand side. At this junction
turn right and 50m later after an s-bend turn left.
It should be signposted from here.
Alternatively, you can make your way to Nohoval, (Take the Kinsale
road. Turn left between the two pubs in Belgooly, Follow this road
until you see a sign post for Nohoval) From Nohoval follow the road to
Robert's cove. Two miles down the road just before an S-Bend you should
find a sign post for Nohoval cove. Follow the signposts.
