Description

Lahinch Left - Lahinch, Ireland Lahinch Left is a point break featuring a left-hand wave over flat rocks, known for its fast and ordinary power. The spot works best at low and mid tide with rising and falling tides, particularly under southeast or east winds and northwest, west, or southwest swells. Access is instant, requiring less than 5 minutes of walking from the town. Located at the south end of Lahinch Beach, this surf spot offers a fun ride that can stretch over 300 meters, making it popular among locals and intermediate surfers. While it can be enjoyable, it’s not consistently reliable year-round. Access is straightforward, with parking available nearby. However, be cautious of potential crowds, especially on weekends and during summer. It's advisable to consult lifeguards about conditions, as backwash and strong rips can pose hazards. A fish, funboard, or longboard is recommended for optimal performance on this wave.
