    Just back from travelling for the last two years where I started surfing. Living in Dublin but was wondering how long it takes to get out west generally??

    Bundoran - Sligo - Lahinch - where is the closest/best to go generally??

    I realise it all depends on swell/direction/wind and what not but im sure they all have different breaks was just wondering if travelling from Dublin where would the quickest area to go to for a day trip....

    Where would be best to go this weekend for instance??

    Cheers

    Southern swell coming on Sunday, starting small but still worth a shot in Lahinch/Cork Area depending on what you're after.

    Tramore is 2 hours away on the M7/M9
    Lahinch is 2 and a half hours on the M7
    Strandhill is less than 3 hours on the M4
    Bundoran is just over 3 hours on the N3
    Cork Area is just over 3 hours on the M7/M8

    Cheers for that. I see its small ye but might give it a shot anyway havent been out in a while.

    was just wondering what time it generally took to get down. not much of a difference between them really. will prob head to bundoran for a paddle

    Im heading to lahinch on monday from Waterford. Im hoping to have at least 3ft clean..

    I wouldn't come down to tramore tbh its been crap the last few weeks. Its looking to pick up next week but with a period of 5 - 6 seconds its not worth it.
