When the white horses rush in from the Atlantic Ocean, get ready for some adrenalin-induced action in Ireland

Grab your surf board and take to Ireland’s tumultuous seas. From Portrush to Portstewart, the craggy Irish coast enjoys wild waves, world-class breaks, truly exhilarating swells and perfectly pristine beaches.  

 

Massive waves pick up speed as they travel across the Atlantic towards Scandinavia and crash against the Irish coast producing excellent surf in the south, west and north. The coastline also provides a great variation in the direction of breaks so it means you can find offshore surf in every wind direction. 

 

Surfing lessons for beginners, coaching for improvers, board hire and wetsuit hire are available at most surf clubs around the country.
