East Coast
Conditions are looking small to flat for the weekend on the east coast with no swell coming along with light northerly winds Saturday and moderate northerly winds Sunday. Contact Brittas Bay Surf School for SUP lessons and tours.
South Coast
It is looking small to flat in Tramore for the weekend with SUP as the only options available. Give Tramore Surf and SUP a shout for SUP tours for the weekend. Winds are lightest on Saturday as it’s a bit blustery Sunday offshore.
South West
Garretstown is also looking flat for the weekend with little to no wind forecast for Saturday but moderate offshores for Sunday. Inch Beach in Kerry is looking like there might be a small wave over the weekend but this will only be 1ft at best with northerly conditions meaning that it could well be flat if the swell doesn’t bend in. Winds are light northerly Saturday and moderate northerly Sunday.
West Coast
Lahinch is forecast to receive a northerly swell for the weekend which may mean that things are small to flat with the best chance of any swell being Saturday morning when the period is a good 10 seconds with really nice offshore winds. I would predict 1-2ft tomorrow morning with probably not much more than 1ft for the rest of the weekend until Sunday evening when another northerly swell pulses through but this will be when the tides is high so may not be surfable. Tides are high at 8am and pm Saturday and 9am and pm Sunday so leave at least 2 hours either side of high for safe access and exit. Saturday has light offshore winds which continue until Sunday lunchtime when the winds go more northerly and turn onshore.
North West
Conditions are looking like they should get to 2-3ft for Strandhill with light offshore winds first thing in the morning with the winds dropping to nothing before turning to breezes onshore by evening. The swell will drop all day so the earlier the better. Sunday starts with a smaller period but the winds are onshore for Sunday picking up throughout the day with waves in the 1-2ft range. In the Bundoran area conditions are looking small and clean for the weekend with 2-3ft conditions on the main peak on Tullan Strand with the rest of the beach offering 1-2ft. Sunday looks like Tullan will start with light onshores and only 1-2ft at best with the winds picking up throughout the day.
North Coast
Waves around Portrush are showing 1-2ft for Saturday with light breezes with these conditions favouring longer boards or foamies with Sunday showing moderate onshore winds with 1-2ft conditions growing throughout the day with the winds swell but the winds show they could hit 20mph onshore by evening so small clean stuff on Saturday is the order.
