Seaside locations such as Lahinch, Strandhill, Bundoran and Tramore rely on holiday makers and tourists seeking the thrill and buzz of surfing to bring life to the town. Surfing is the heart and soul of these regions. These surf schools rightfully trade in the carpark overlooking the beach where the experienced instructors have full view of the ocean and the ever changing sea conditions. With only a handful of trained lifeguards on duty during the summer months, surf instructors at Lahinch Beach play a valuable role in advising people about dangerous conditions year round and on numerous occasions surf instructors have come to the aid of struggling surfers and swimmers.
