The story

About the operator

Blue Green Yonder was founded by local man Trevor Foster in 2018, starting with just four kayaks. It has grown steadily since, securing a lease for the 4-acre Castle Island in central Enniskillen in 2021, which is now its base.

Today it is an outdoor adventure activity provider offering paddle-sport hire and guided tours along with land activities and a coffee shop, with qualified instructors leading sessions.
