Portrush in Northern Ireland is said to be the most consistent surf spot in Europe. It feeds off north Atlantic lows that spin across from Iceland to Norway between August and May and send swell pulsing down to the north facing beach breaks of this area. It also has some good nightlife and is a popular tourist destination.
