Brandon Bay is a must for every dedicated (kite)wavesurfer, smoothly organised by former irish champion Ryan Coote who took us on a roadtrip along his westcoast and its hidden treasures!! C ya Ryan. We will be back! Thank you, again, for being a hell of a tourguide ;)
One of the things about the Dingle peninsula is that there are loads of people who surf or kitesurf - and the conditions and locations are great for it. Take the wind and a bit of rain and boom - you have a sport that you can do in the Irish weather!
I got started learning to kitesurf last weekend, and I am hooked. Ryan, the owner of the business, is a great mix of laid back but meticulous, making sure that you learn how to rig your own equipment, understand the wind, and learn your basic skills of kite control before you progress to new skills and advancements. He also progresses you through different sizes of kites and lines as you do this, which keeps things challenging as well as great fun.
I would highly recommend Kitesurf Ireland and Ryan to try out this really awesome water sport! (I've just completed my 3rd lesson, and cannot wait to keep going!)
