Ballybunion - Right surf guide

Ballybunion - Right is a surf spot located at the north end of Ballybunion beach. It offers a unique wave that can be fun for surfers looking for something different. The area is known for its beautiful scenery, with dramatic cliffs nearby and a sandy beach that sets the stage for the wave to form. It's a spot where you might find a friendly local crew, so being respectful is key.

The wave here breaks right over sand and is mainly a point break, ideal for those looking to ride longer walls. It's great for handling swell sizes starting from 2 ft (0.6 m) and really shines with a west swell direction. You can also catch some decent waves with south-west or north-west swells. The best conditions usually align with mid to high tide, and the preferable wind is coming from the east. Just be mindful of the cliff and lookout for hidden caves in the area.

Access to the spot is pretty straightforward, but do keep an eye out for the cliffs and caves around the surf zone. Parking is available in town, which makes it easy to get to the beach. Just remember to keep it chill and respect the locals, as they’ve got their own vibe going on.
