Surf and Salsa

Surf and Salsa Weekend September 18/19th
We are having our first Surf an Salsa weekend in September. The weekend is all about fun and meeting new people. Some of our Instructors are keen to learn a new skill as well.
As you probably know, salsa is the hot dance sweeping the world, from Cuba to LA to Paris and London. We would like to bring salsa to Bundoran. The package would include an intro salsa class playing tunes of Salsa, Bachata, Reggaeton, Samba etc...we will bring the Latin flavour to the surf city
We will have a surf session during the day on Saturday and in the evening we will have the Salsa class in a local hotel. After the Salsa class we aim to hit the Bridge Bar before hopefully showing off our new dance steps on the town. An optional surf is available on the Sunday if your keen.
The class will be a fun and enjoyable class. We will go through all the basic steps that will allow the students to start dancing straight away. We will also do some animation using latin pop music to keep the flow going. No partners are necessary, you can come solo. The class will be approx 1hr. It's a good opportunity to try something new and different and also a way to get to know people.
The surf and salsa classes cost €50 for both with the option of a surf on the Sunday for an extra 25euros. We are also doing Surf/Salsa and accommodation packages in the lodge for 90 (dorm)/100 (private room). If you have a group we can arrange self catering packages for a similar price.

Surf report 14/15th

If you feel like a surf trip to the sun this winter you are in luck. We have just announced trips away this winter to Peniche, Algarve, Fuertaventura and Bali. The trips will include help from local instructors as well as Bundoran Surf Cos top guys and girls. Cain Kilcullan, Irelands top free surfer, will also be helping out.

O'Neill winter suits have arrived and we have secured a limited early bird discount from O'Neil. All suits on the shop floor have a 10% discount but it is limited to whats on the shop floor already


Weekend Surf Forecast

The swell has dropped off this week but there should be a small pulse with light winds for the weekend at Tullan.There is a small clean westerly swell that should pulse in 2 foot waves at Tullan the light winds should make nice conditions. The big tides should also help things producing hollow small peaks at the cliff on low and longer walls down the beach at high. Hard to read the size of the swell but i think it will be a little bigger on Sunday with light offshores.Tullan will be the best spot all weekend, there is perfect learner waves but there should also be a few sets for the shortboarders. fingers crossed Happy surfing.

All welcome.We have just added a new date for a new womens surf/pilates weekend info on website. For those interested in surfing in west Donegal we have a surf camp set up in Tramore beach between Ardara and Portnoo. Stunning setting and nice and quiet.



Weekend Surf Forecast

There is a fresh west/north west swell hitting over the weekend. The swell is tiny today but is due to pickup early on saturday.The winds are light south west in the morning and Tullan could be the best spot. The swell will pick up throughout the day but the wind is due to swing light onshore. The wind should be light enough to mean the waves will be well surfable. The afternoon see some decent waves at Rossnowalgh and a few sneaky ones at the reefs.On Sunday the swell will drift more northwesterly in direction and there should still be waves in the 3 foot range. The winds are also looking like light but more southerly so is looking potential good. Wont be huge but well worth getting up early.

march 12th weekend surf forecast

Surf Forecast:
It has been a better week here with surfable waves most days and sunny skies. A few people down at Tullan most evenings for after work sessions. We even got to surf the Peak one morning, the first time in nearly a month!For the weekend it looks like we will have surfable waves at Tullan on Sat and Sun but the winds are not looking great. On Sat waves at tullan should be in the 2 to 3 foot range with NW onshore winds. Surfable but it will be choppy. On Sun the conditions should be fairly similar with 2 foot waves and NW winds so choppy conditions again. The conditions for next week are looking better and we are expecting waves and better wind conditions for St. Patrick's day if you are planning a surf day in Donegal. So a poor weekend surf forecast but there will be waves for the keen.Tides this weekend high (3.4m) at 5pm and low (0.9m) at 11am Enjoy!
