Inch Strand surf guide

Inch Strand is a scenic beach located in County Kerry, Ireland. It offers long stretches of sand and is a popular spot for surfers looking for a more relaxed vibe. This beach is especially known for being a great place for beginner surfers and longboarders to enjoy the waves without feeling overwhelmed.

The surf at Inch Strand is generally slow, making it ideal for those who are just starting out. It works best with a SouthWest swell direction, and you can catch waves coming from the South and West. The wave heights typically handle sizes from 1ft (0.3m) and break over soft sand, providing a gentle ride. You can find both left and right waves here, which gives beginners a good chance to practice turning and riding. The best conditions often happen with the wind blowing from the East, and the surf can be enjoyed at low, mid, or high tide.

This beach is suitable for all skill levels, though it's particularly beginner-friendly. It's a nice spot to cruise on a log and enjoy the scenery while catching some small, manageable waves. Plus, the relaxed atmosphere makes it a great place to hang out and connect with other surfers.
