MOST of us may hate this sort of weather – but not Ireland’s big wave surfers who have flocked to Donegal to take advantage of it.
Hundreds of surfers from all over the country descended on Bundoran to take advantage of waves of up to 40ft!
“I have met people who have travelled from Waterford to come surfing in Bundoran,” said Killian O’Kelly from Surf N Turf in the town.
“We have had loads of people up from Dublin for the weekend and this is just as good as it gets really for the Donegal-Sligo region.
“We get big waves on the west coast of Ireland all the time, but there are certain times of year when you get off-shore winds and they just hold up the waves and they make for perfect conditions. It is not sunny, it’s grey and overcast – but that combination of big waves and off-shore winds just cannot be beaten,” he added.
