Don?t forget to explore the area in between your surf sessions. Bundoran is located on the North West coast of Ireland 50 kms north of Sligo town. The town is an enjoyable location for a night out with a good choice of restaurants and plenty of bars. Spend a night in a snug pub listening to a traditional Irish music session; enjoy some of the countless summer festivals, hit a few balls on the golf course and sit back and enjoy the craic and a pint of Guinness in one of the town's many bars.
If you like Golf there is an 18 holes links course right beside Tullan Strand surf beach. There is also a 6 screen cinema in Bundoran.
Rossnowlagh is a few km's north of Bundoran and worth the visit for its cliff top restaurants and bars which look down onto the surf beach.
Further Afield
The landscape surrounding Bundoran in County Donegal is lush green. There are many striking hilltops and mountains such as the famous Ben Bulben in Sligo ? take a morning trip up it and enjoy the outstanding views of the Atlantic Ocean and surrounding countryside from the top.
Sligo is an attractive town with good bars and restaurants, theaters, cinema art galleries and delicatessens. Sligo is the largest town in the north-west, with a heritage going back 6,000 years. The rugged landscape and countryside has been immortalized by the famous Irish poet W.B. Yeats and through the paintings of his brother Jack Yeats.
Past through Sligo to Strandhill, not really big enough to be called a town, but its long beach is perfect for surf, and the Bridge Bar & Shells Café serve up tasty food that can be eaten outside in the summer sun. After a day surfing in Strandhill drop in to the Voya organic seaweed baths just off the beach ? it is well worth the experience, you will feel incredible afterwards!
