Location and Facilities:

 

Photo of Ireland Surf & Adventure Center Donegal is one of Ireland’s most scenic, beautiful counties. Steeped in history, many famous characters, past and present are associated with the county, St Colm Cille , Red Hugh O’ Donnell, William Allingam , The Four Masters, Brian Friel,- the county is a living museum of culture in Ireland. Dramatic mountain scenery sweeps down to a rugged Atlantic coastline of perfect waves, and white sands. This is a county where old meets new: Peat fires burn in the rural areas, surfers build their barbeques at the beaches. Gaelic is spoken in many of the Gaeltacht areas as a first language, but broadband has arrived to make the area truly multicultural. It is a county which has always been noted for its welcome: a county that makes the tourist comfortable with the most modern facilities: but the music, the soft rain, the purple mountains and the green ocean are still an irresistible lure for those wishing to visit the real Ireland.

Bundoran is a small surf town, between the cities of Sligo & Donegal, overlooking the Atlantic. It is a popular seaside destination with a lively atmosphere. It is a town which offers spectacular resources: three fantastic surf beaches, a lively music scene, a multiplex cinema, stores, library, plenty of bars and restaurants & the most beautiful views in Ireland. Many international visitors travel to Bundoran to surf, play music or just enjoy its amazing location. It is a combination of the bohemian, the contemporary and the traditional, and offers the visitors the best of every world.

Travel to cities of Galway and Dublin is easy and inexpensive, and as Ireland is a small island, it is possible to visit all corners during the semester. Ireland is also an excellent gateway point to inexpensive short breaks to other European cities.
