Seamus was an excellent instructor and lots of fun! Highly recommended. Strand Hill Beach is the perfect location for beginners to learn surfing basics.

Myself my brother-in-law and my nephew has an excellent experience learning to surf for the first time. The instructor was knowledgeable and extremely kind. I highly recommend for anyone trying to surf for the first time to visit Sligo Surf Experience. Better surf than sorry, we all enjoyed ourselves immensely and will be booking again next time we visit Ireland.
