This wild natural geographical spit never disappoints.The beach is a ever evolving spectacle and a captivating holistic and therapeutical experience for all who visit.

Sammys fantastic beach bar to replenish your hunger or thirst, a joyful spot to socialise with family friends as you arrive or before you depart or maybe even make new acquaintances is the icing on your travel experience.

Trekking through wild flower lanes and roads with magnificent views of the coast line was an experience we will never forget. The Irish cobb horses are a beautiful sight, and have such a gentle nature we felt very safe with our children . Very reasonable rates for such an incredible adventure.

We turned up without booking but luckily we got a lesson 15 minutes later. There's basic changing rooms and all gear supplied. We had a great instructor named Owen who helped make sure our boys continued make great progress. Highly recommended 10/10 would go again.

Very spectacular drive. Magnificent scenery! Had heard it was good but was better than anticipated. Take notice of advice given for vehicle size. Came close to here 2 years ago in a motorhome and advised not to use the pass and now can totally understand why. Be careful of 1 lane only near the summit. Don't miss it if your are in Kerry.

Mixed experience group had a blast learning to surf. Very friendly guys, booked same day and ended up with private lesson. Group leader was patient, some people had little or no experience, aged from 11. As an aside, apparently being good at ballet helps you...MoreThanks so much for leaving a review. Glad you had a great time Surfing with us and hope to see you again:)

Reviewed By BettyKate - London, United Kingdom
This was my first ever experience of windsurfing, something I had always wanted to learn.
I had the first session on a rather windy and rainy day, the second planned session had to be aborted due to the powerful winds. My second and third sessions took place on a fabulously sunny and warm day. All sessions took place at Scraggane Bay (Maharees, Co Kerry, Ireland)
The team at Jamie Knox's were amazing, I felt looked after from start to finish, great instruction and support when I did not understand or needed further explanation. Safety comes always comes first, and I loved now much time Helena (my wonderful instructor) spent on the foundations and the turns. No question felt was too much or stupid, and I loved the Helena happily kept going over manoeuvres that I found difficult to remember.
This left me feeling that I was secure on the board and able to actually windsurf (beginning to anyway)!
It made the two days great fun and I certainly will never forget this experience.
Thank you :-)
I will definitely be back as soon as I can free up my work schedule!

We had a wonderful time riding on the beach and enjoying the beautiful scenery. It was so peaceful and relaxing, we barely noticed the light rain. The O'Connors are lovely people, the horses terrific. Not being so young anymore, we were grateful for the stool to help us mount. :) We can definitely give a hearty recommendation!
