About
Aloha! Perfect Day Surf school is based on the beautiful beach of Strandhill in County Sligo.
Tom and Simone Hickey originally founded Perfect Day Surf School back in the summer of 1998. Back then there were no surf schools in Sligo and only a small community of surfers. For the last 11 years they have developed the reputation for being one of the safest and most progressive surf schools in Ireland.
“Our heritage is based in tradition and we are proud to share the experience of surfing”
…this means that whether you are coming along for your first lesson or are coming for more progressive instruction and training, you’re dealing with experienced professionals who are themselves experienced surfers. This makes a big difference! Now, the School is owned and run by Tom and Simone’s daughter Elisha. Elisha has been surfing since she was six and is passionate about her surfing and coaching.
You’ll find us on the beachfront in Strandhill. The school’s base is down the lane behind Ma Barrys house. A perfect beach-front position.
