    Every beach differs depending on the swell and weather conditions

    Have a look at the forecast for next week Strong SW winds on saturday 30knt+ if it holds I'd find a high stool

    Enniscrone doesn't really have any hazards, no currents as well i think!

    I've seen it with a strong cross shore rip also very strong off shore winds, do you want to get blown out to sea?

    How'd you fare Summit?

    Enniscrone is generally a safe beach. Have seen a pull from left to right (facing out to sea) toward the rocks on occasion, though nothing you couldnt paddle out of if you kept your wits about you.

    Overall, good place to improve your surfing.
