Spot guide
Strandhill is a WNW-facing beach break in County Sligo, Connacht, Ireland. It picks up swell from W to NNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 70% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ESE: light winds or ESE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WNW onshores chop it up.
