Zuhe was a perfect instructor on a perfect beach with perfect conditions. We had the time of our lives!

Mariana was so lovely! I hadn’t surfed since I was a kid and she was kind and patient with me, as well as others in our group that had not surfed before. I would love to do another session next time I visit Strandhill!

Excellent tour, very informative, better during working week, as distillery is operational then. Nice cocktail at the end

Sebestian is a SUPERSTAR and makes the BEST ogham-fashioned. Thank you for making it a 5 star experience from start to finish!

Fantastic! Darryl was very accommodating and patient with our young kids, a great memory for them.

Great experience, learned lots of interesting stuff about the area and we saw seals and dolphins! Amazing!

Great and safe first surf experience. Michael was a superb teacher and Melanie and the team made the few days memorable . Really enjoyed the surfing and was constantly getting tips in the water

Without a doubt the four surf lessons made our trip to Strandhill. Nothing was too much trouble, very accommodating. Staff friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and good craic…would recommend a couple of lessons in a row so you get the hang of it.. Can’t speak highly enough of it.

Melissa was incredibly informative. We will provided a lot of great local history with some tales sprinkled in. Thank you for a great experience.

It's a rain or shine experience! The guide had umbrellas for us and we had our rain gear on. Be prepared for uneven footing on the cobblestone. You will learn so much about Sligo’s history and Ireland itself. Our guide was amazing! We were all shivering at the end. Was it just the rain or all the dark tales! 👻☘️☔️

Seamus was an excellent instructor and lots of fun! Highly recommended. Strand Hill Beach is the perfect location for beginners to learn surfing basics.

Myself my brother-in-law and my nephew has an excellent experience learning to surf for the first time. The instructor was knowledgeable and extremely kind. I highly recommend for anyone trying to surf for the first time to visit Sligo Surf Experience. Better surf than sorry, we all enjoyed ourselves immensely and will be booking again next time we visit Ireland.

Decided to do this tour as I had previously only been to the cafe and shop and had enjoyed that visit. I have visited a fair few distilleries in Ireland and Scotland but was looking forward to this tour as I reckoned it would be a bit different. I was not disappointed. The tour, conducted by Cian, was fabulous. It was extremely entertaining and while the tour covered the usual aspects of how whiskey is made, it did so with a light touch, concentrating more on the founder and the brand. The tour progressed through a number of “rooms” such as the train station, the actual distillery works, and my favourite, PJ’s collection of curious items in the botanicals room where the flavouring of the gin is discussed. (Whiskey, gin and vodka are all produced here)Given that this distillery was only founded in 2014 they have created a superb brand with a tour to match. Possibly the best distillery tour yet!

Great tour fun and very informative- Cian clearly loving his job.

Amazing experience in Strandhill town, lovely staff and instructors who were helpful throughout the whole class. The waves are amazing as well so you’re definitely getting your money worth for the class.

Zuhe was an excellent instructor! Super supportive, hands on, and relaxed. He gave plenty of room to just try it out while also making sure I had all the information to succeed. Would absolutely do again and recommend to friends. I’m HOOKED!
