The Wednesday Sea Scout Troop is open to boys aged between 11 and 18 years. We run a full Scouting Programme all through the year with a particular emphasis on Water Activities - Canoeing, Rowing & Sailing. We also run land-based activities including Hiking & Camping. Key Dates from our monthly programme can be found below.
Sea Scouts have been active on the Bull Island, Dollymount since 1912.
