Strandhill Surf School sets itself apart by our great beachfront premises, in walking distance to the waves and by a professional approach to our lessons. Upon arrival you check in and meet the instructors, who will give you all the gear needed. After going to the changing facilities, where toilets are showers are provided, you are walked down to the beach where the lesson begins. Your boards will be taken down for you where the instructors will have chosen the best spot for your lesson. We have recently introduced Stand Up Paddleboarding which is proving to be a fun option when there are no waves and the conditions are calm and suitable.

Your surfing gear includes a beginner’s foam board, ideal for learning and a warm wetsuit and boots. In cold conditions wetsuit gloves and hoods are available. Our wetsuits are restocked every year ensuring good condition and are thoroughly washed and dried after every lesson. We also have a range of intermediate surf boards for more experienced surfers.
