Advice on surfing holidays

WOMAN:

Jack, I'm thinking of taking the kids to the seaside on a surfing holiday this summer and I wanted to ask your advice - as I know you're such an expert.

JACK:

Well, I don't know about that, but yes, I've done a bit of surfing over the years.

JACK:

I'd thoroughly recommend it.

JACK:

I think it's the kind of holiday all the family can enjoy together.

JACK:

The thing about surfing is that it's great for all ages and all abilities.

JACK:

My youngest started when he was only three!

WOMAN:

Wow! But it's quite physically demanding, isn't it?

WOMAN:

I've heard you need to be pretty fit.

JACK:

Yes. You'll certainly learn more quickly and won't tire as easily.

WOMAN:

Well - that should be OK for us.

WOMAN:

You've been surfing a few times in Ireland, haven't you?

JACK:

Yes. There's some great surfing there, which people don't always realise.

WOMAN:

And which locations would you recommend? - there seem to be quite a few.

JACK:

Yes, there are loads.

JACK:

Last year we went to County Donegal.

JACK:

There are several great places to surf there.

WOMAN:

What about in County Clare?

WOMAN:

I read that's also really good for surfing.

JACK:

Yes, it is.

JACK:

I've been there a few times.

JACK:

Most people go to Lahinch.

JACK:

My kids love it there.

JACK:

The waves aren't too challenging and the town is very lively.

WOMAN:

Are there good hotels there?

JACK:

Yes - some very nice ones and there are also a few basic hostels and campsites.

JACK:

It's great if you need lessons as the surf schools are excellent.

WOMAN:

Sounds good.

JACK:

Yes and there's lots to see in the area - like those well-known cliffs - ... I've forgotten the name of them ...

WOMAN:

Oh don't worry - I can look them up.

JACK:

I've also been surfing in County Mayo, which is less well-known for surfing, but we had a really good time.

JACK:

That was a few years ago when the kids were younger.

JACK:

There's a good surf school at Carrowniskey beach.

WOMAN:

How do you spell that?

JACK:

C-A-double R-O-W-N-I-S-K-E-Y.

WOMAN:

ОK.

JACK:

I put the kids into the surf camp they run during the summer for 10-16 year olds.

WOMAN:

Oh right. How long was that for?

JACK:

Three hours every day for a week.

JACK:

It was perfect - they were so tired out after that.

WOMAN:

I can imagine.

JACK:

One thing we did while the kids were surfing was to rent some kayaks to have a look around the bay which is nearby.

JACK:

It's really beautiful.

WOMAN:

Oh, I'd love to do that.

WOMAN:

Now the only time I went to Ireland it rained practically every day.

JACK:

Mmm yes - that can be a problem - but you can surf in the rain, you know.

WOMAN:

It doesn't have the same appeal, somehow.

JACK:

Well, the weather's been fine the last couple of years when I've been there, but actually, it tends to rain more in August than in the spring or autumn.

JACK:

September's my favourite month because the water is warmer then.

WOMAN:

The only problem is that the kids are back to school then.

JACK:

I know. But one good thing about Irish summers is that it doesn't get too hot.

JACK:

The average temperature is about 19 degrees and it usually doesn't go above 25 degrees.

WOMAN:

That sounds alright.

WOMAN:

Now what about costs?

JACK:

Surfing is a pretty cheap holiday really - the only cost is the hire of equipment.

JACK:

You can expect to pay a daily rate of about 30 euros for the hire of a wetsuit and board - but you can save about 40 euros if you hire by the week.

WOMAN:

That's not too bad.

JACK:

No. It's important to make sure you get good quality wetsuits - you'll all get too cold if you don't.

JACK:

And make sure you also get boots.

JACK:

They keep your feet warm and it's easier to surf with them on too.

WOMAN:

OK. Well, thanks very much …
