Spring tides

We had some big spring tides here on the weekend of the 19th September. As you can see from the photo some unfortunate person left their car on Rossnowlagh beach and got caught in the tide, so the surf instructors and students had to go for the photo opportunity. On a serious note this kind of thing happend every year in Rossnowlagh and also in the lagoon in Streedagh. Buy a tide book for €2 and keep it in your car. If the tide is over 3.6m you probably dont want to park on rossnowlagh at high tide, and if its 4.0m and above watch out for Streedagh lagoon.
