East Coast
With the good weather incoming the east coast is flat calm for the weekend with very little waves or winds.
South Coast
Tramore is showing a nice swell for the weekend but realistically this is not going to get much above 2ft with very light onshore winds that are only breezes on Saturday before Sunday drops back to 1ft at best as the period and the swell drops with even lighter onshore breezes.
South West
Conditions in Garretstown on Saturday are looking like 2-3ft with the odd occasional bigger set depending on the tides with light onshore breezes with Sunday showing 1-2ft and light onshore breezes that may barely register. Inch Beach in Kerry is showing 4-6ft on the charts but this is coming from a small southerly swell which has to bend so even Friday (today) it’s only producing a 2ft max wave with the swell due to drop a little for Saturday so expect 1-2ft waves with a light cross shore wind from the south but this shouldn’t mess with the wave too much. Sunday drops to 1-2ft but it will probably be more of the 1ft than 2 with whispers of wind.
West Coast
Lahinch is looking small for the weekend with 1-2ft knee high waves at best on Saturday with light onshore breezes that are barely whispers so good for those looking to have a bit of fun on a foamie but not much else. Sunday drops back even further to only produce 1ft or less with again light whispers of wind. Tides are high in the middle of the day so get on it early Saturday for the best conditions but that might be it for the weekend as it drops all the way from there with high on Saturday at 1pm so leave 2 hours either side and Sunday’s high at 2 so same again for safe exit and entry.
North West
Strandhill is looking like the swell will be pretty much small to flat for both Saturday and Sunday with light offshore winds Saturday and barely a breeze Sunday. In the Bundoran area it is also looking small to flat for both days with Tullan the best chance for up to 1ft for those keen. Rossnowlagh will probably gain lake status as it will probably have a ripple but winds and weather are good so break out the SUPs.
North Coast
Portrush will also have small to flat conditions for the weekend with very little incoming swell and light breezes both days.
