Summer Surf Camp 2024

We have been running SURFMAYO surf camps for 25+ years and it has been a great success teaching local, national and international kids and teenagers how to surf.

Surf camps run weekly throughout July & August and it’s mainly for children from 7 to 16 years old. As well as learning to surf, or improving your surfing skills our camp is based around an atmosphere where everyone will have a great time while staying safe in the water. Technique, water safety, fitness and learning about the ever changing surfing conditions are all part of the camp. Each person is encouraged to progress at their own pace while being inspired and inspiring others in the group.

The grand finale is a surf competition on the Thursday. Run with “good craic” in mind, more than battling for a world title, this gives our surfers the big push to really go for it at the end of the week. With a few medals up for grabs, from most improved surfer of the week to best wipe out!

We usually run surf camp from 9.30 – 11.30am Monday to Thursday, however some weeks we have to alter start times to fit in with local tide-times for Carrowniskey Strand (see timetable below). This is solely to ensure optimum conditions and safety of the kids participating.

All our Surf Coaches are Irish Surfing Association Approved Surf Instructors, qualified Beach Lifeguards, Garda vetted and have received training and certification in Child Protection.
