    Checked out magicseaweed.com 3/5 stars for dublin bay today. Anyone know any other sites I could use to get a second opinion... thinking of heading down this evening.

    I popped down to white rock... clean waves but not big at all. There was 2 guys surfing and a body boarder there... the 2 lads got up standing anyway...

    I'm heading down around 7

    Ok was absolute bolix! I'm guessing that dublin bay on magicseaweed.com has nothing to do with dublin...

    There actually wasn't even a wave in sight!

    Yeah I heard this on the radio this morning - Does anyone know where I might obtain the full list ?

    Hold on got it from EPA website -
    http://www.epa.ie/NewsCentre/PressReleases/MainBody,14661,en.html
    The sites that failed to comply with the minimum EU mandatory standard were:
    Balbriggan (Dublin Fingal), Malahide (Dublin Fingal), Clifden (Galway) and Dunmore East Main Strand (Waterford). Balbriggan, Malahide and Clifden failed to meet the EU mandatory standard for both total and faecal coliforms while Dunmore East Main Strand failed to meet the standard for faecal coliforms. Of these four beaches, only Clifden had failed also in the previous year.
