Fanore is beautiful, very scenic, surrounded by the Burren, but it is a little quiet. 1 pub, 1 restaurant, 1 coffee shop, 1 shop, and beautiful countryside...all you need really! If you want a chilled out surf weekend away from the city and the crowds it's perfect. So like I said, it depends on what you're looking for.

 

What a lot of people who come to surf with us do is stay in Doolin. It's only 15 minutes drive down the road and has a lot more options when it comes to accommodation. Hostels to Hotels, a bunch of places to eat and 3 of the best traditional Irish music pubs in Ireland. You're guaranteed plenty of craic at night in Doolin. Then only a 10 minute drive for the surfing hangover cure in the morning!
If you're coming to Doolin without transport, get a group of min. 4 people together, and we'll come pick you up and drop you off after surfing at no extra cost!
