"I've had a few surf lessons with the Surf School Adventure Centre and had a blast each time. Laid back, enthusiastic and helpful instructors who really make the experience fun . I always come away with a smile on my face. Would highly recommend and I will definitely be back again."

"A great place with breathtaking scenery and the staff/owners are so friendly. The surfing classes are so fun and everything is so organised(bus service/equipment) which makes it a top activity to experience. The accommodation that is provided by Achill surf is great too 🙂 I can't recommend Achill surf enough 🙂 "
Rose Conroy
"Terrific place and spectacular location with stellar instructors. I found the instructors friendly and patient ( needed that bit of extra help to stand ) their knowledge and experience made the lessons easy. Having showers in the beach separates Achill surf adventures from the rest. Looking forward to visiting again in May and staying at their new accommodations. I highly recommend the center to any surfer "
Frances Doherty
"Great location and great staff! They were all very friendly and went out of their way to make our time on Achill a hugely enjoyable experience. They are located on Keel beach which is incredibly scenic. We got some nice waves for our surf lessons and a dolphin popped up every now and then to say hello to top it all off. Looking forward to a trip next summer already! Keep up the good work guys!"
