Michael was an absolute pleasure to deal with... just a great teacher! Such a good way with young people and instructing them safely out on the water. A great sense of humour too despite the wild weather sometimes! I would Highly recommend this school if you're starting out Surfing. Thanks Michael

We are from Manchester , and are in Donegal for a week. We wanted our 12yr old son to have some surfing lessons, and found Surf'sup online. Jack had a fabulous time being taught by Michael. He was brilliant with him, and taught him really well! All safety precautions went through before getting in the water. Thanks Michael! Highly recommended! We'll be back next year!

I had a great time with 2 surf lessons with Michael. It was fun and safe on a long beach with loads of space to surf. Michael’s teaching style is approachable- everything is provided. I can highly recommend Surf’SUP.

The kids done the surf camp on the first week of July 2024 and had an absolute ball. Michael was an excellent teacher, fun, professional and safe aware at all times. We would highly recommend him surf lessons and will be back again 🤞

We use SurfsUp as often as we can make it to Doohey. Mikey is a really helpful and supportive instructor. He also rents boards and other surf equipment for anyone willing to brave the waves without a lesson. Highly recommend!

already looking forward to our next sesh 🤙🏼
