Surfbreaks.ie
We have travelled the globe extensively ourselves and hope to pass on some of that knowledge to help others have great surf holidays. Travelling is one of the best aspects of surfing were you can often see untouched pieces of coastline or roads less travelled by main stream tourism. Surf Travel is also a great way to meet people and improve your skills. The site is organic and will grow with everybodys feedback and comments.
Each page is split up into a general overview of the country with furthur pages on accomadation,surf tours lessons and general travel tips. The secret of a good surf trip is a bit of research to make sure the waves suit your ability. We aim to give you the low down on most places with info on accomadation, water temps, types of wave, best times of year, availability of lessons etc etc. Hopefully you will become as passionate as us about surf travel.
The best surf destination for a surf trip can depend on many factors with one of the most important being that the waves suit the standard of your surfing. Some destinations are for experienced surfers only but most can cater for all standards. However there is more than just waves to worry about and we give you advice on all other aspects of surf travel.
