Old Head Beach eFoil Forecast

Louisburgh · Ireland

Old Head Beach scores 83/100 for efoil today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces NE. A sheltered, sandy Blue Flag beach backed by cliffs with rockpools exposed at low tide, near Croagh Patrick and the Oldhead Wood nature reserve. Its east-facing beach break suits beginner-to-intermediate surfing, windsurfing, and paddleboarding. Dogs are banned from the bathing area in summer. Lifeguards patrol daily in July-August and summer weekends. Tidal range is significant: low tide exposes rockpools, while high tide reduces usable beach and entry.
