SURF, SUP & MUSIC

Bringing together the best of what Achill has to offer.

 

Learn to surf in in the clear, cool waters of Achill Island, surrounded by rugged cliffs and unspoilt sand dunes. There really is nothing like it!

Soundwave Surf School is based on the grounds of the Bervie Guesthouse, a restored coastguard station on the western end of Keel beach. This part of the beach is Keel’s hidden gem, an oasis of calm away from the hustle and bustle.

With its beautiful gardens and breathtaking views of the Minaun Cliffs, Clare Island, and the Atlantic Ocean as far as the eye can see, this is the perfect place to enjoy Achill Island at its very best.

Come on down and say hello… we have coffee! (and very friendly dogs)

  • Live Music

    Join us in The Valley House for some traditional Irish music every Thursday night from 9pm.

    The more the merrier, so don’t be shy. Can you sing? Great! Can you play an instrument? Even better — bring it along, join in the craic, and maybe even teach us a tune or two from your homeplace.

    Sit back, soak up the atmosphere, and enjoy the sounds of Achill from some of the island’s most talented musicians.

    Keep an eye out for other upcoming news and music events.

  • Walking Tours

    Ancient forts. Megalithic tombs. Deserted villages.

    Fires, famines, priests, and pirate queens.

    Discover the secrets of Achill’s past while exploring its unique landscape on foot.

    Hear some of the stories that have been passed down through the generations, and learn about the island’s rich history, heritage, culture, and ecology.
