    Its a massive beach, bigger waves as you go East up along it.
    Needs a huge swell to get going. Needs at least 25 foot swell with power in it in the atlantic coming from a W or WNW swell.

    When all of the other beach breaks in the area are blown out with a SW/W wind and way too massive to surf is when mallaghmore is worth a look.

    it very very very very rarely works even small, it's not a surf beach and only gets small waves if an epic swell cloes out the rest of the county which is also rare.. whomever wrote that guide is full of ****e i lifeguarded there many times and know it well, around the head, well that is another story altogether......

    Yeah but seriously, its only an option less than 10 days a year tops.

    On the plus side, really good sandbars build up there as its so sheltered, so when it does work, it tends to be excellent, clean and small with long waves.
