Our Story
Wild Day Out began as a small personal project — a map of wild swimming spots around West Cork.
It quickly grew into something bigger: a shared space for all kinds of outdoor adventures.
West Cork has a way of drawing you outside. From misty coves to forest trails, cold dips to warm saunas, it’s a region that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect.
Wild Day Out was built to make that discovery easier — and to celebrate the people who make it possible.
For Outdoor Providers
If you run an adventure, experience, or outdoor venue, we’d love to feature you.

Adventure Responsibly
The wild is for everyone — and it needs our care. Please explore responsibly:
- Leave no trace
- Respect private land and local communities
- Stay safe and know your limits
- Support small, local operators whenever you can
Together, we can keep West Cork’s wild spaces thriving for generations to come.
