Enniscrone surfspot characteristics

More about Enniscrone surfspot

A fast, hollow righthand pointbreak breaking over a sand-covered reef. High quality wave but needs a solid N swell to fire, as the swell window is limited.

Stick close to the harbour for super small learning waves, then head up the strand and find a bigger peak. Tides: Mid to High Size: Knee high to overhead. Wind: S - SE Swell: N-W Bottom: Sand, an occasional stone. Paddling: Can be difficult to get out when bigger. Spot Rating: Fun peaks and lots of them.

Any.

Parking in town lot. Walk onto beach.

Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer.

Crowd Factor: Can get busy on a summer day, but plenty of beach to find your own place. Local Vibe: Generally friendly. However some of the surrounding waves are among the more sensitive and protected waves in Ireland. Important to be humble if exploring.

Park by the harbour. Inishcrone has seaweed baths, a surf school and a beginner-friendly beach. Lots of kiters too who love the wide gently shelving sands and regular cross-onshore winds.

Agricultural runoff and sewage outflow after heavy rains.

Rips, especially further down the beach. Strong lateral currents when bigger.
