What to expect

You will learn about our alpacas, a health and safety briefing, introduced to your alpaca, trek your alpaca to Cranfield beach through country lanes to the beach and back to base, learn about the local history of the Vikings, WWII American air base, feed them on their return and meet the rest of the alpacas.

Our beach treks usually last approximately 90-120 minutes. Refreshments are included.

We are so lucky to have one of the best beaches in Ireland on our doorstep – we know you will all love it too!
