Surf's Up!
Don't underestimate this tiny Irish town. Bonduran is home to some of the best waves in Ireland. We found a perfect bed and breakfast PLUS surf school called Bonduran Surf Co. Compared to the other hostels we experienced, this place was a dream. The rooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable - reminded me of staying at a lake house. The bathrooms have just been re-done so amenities were prestine. The staff treated us kindly and saw to it all our needs were met. The common area had a computer, couch and television.
(Here I am VERY excited about a queen size bed!!)
We opted for a morning surfing lesson. Bright and early, we strapped on our wet suits and headed to the Irish coast. We started off on the sand and learned from our friendly teacher how to "pop" up at the perfect moment after a wave hits.
The waves were ideal for beginners like us! Each one of us caught a good wave and for my first surfing experience- the environement and help from the teacher created one of my favorite memories of Ireland.

I would say you only need 1 night here. Give yourself an afternoon or morning to surf - but then move on to the next place! The bus stop is right by Bonduran Surf Co.
