About Us

Nestled at the southwestern edge of the Wild Atlantic Way, you will find Dingle Surf - the most westerly surf shop in all of Europe!

In the year 2000, when the Farr brothers Ben & Jason from the UK's surf capital Newquay, Cornwall came to surf the excellent breaks of County Kerry, Ireland they found that it was nigh impossible to get a bar of wax - or a decent pair of trousers!

Six months later Dingle Surf was born. At first to the confusion of the Dingle locals, many of whom didn't even realise they had some of the countries best surf on their doorstep. But as the profile of Irish surfing grew across the world, so did the reputation of Dingle Surf and in 2005 the Irish Independent called the shop "a vital pilar of the commercial landscape of Dingle."

Fifteen years later and Dingle Surf is still the town's only surf shop, stocking all the latest surf fashions from the best brands as well top of the line equipment & wetsuits. We also carry our own range of mega popular Dingle Surf apparell and we ship them to our fans all over the world.

Every summer Ben introduces hundreds of adults and kids to the sport of surfing at our mega popular surf school. We also lead tours of the harbour on stand up paddle boards to explore the magical Kerry coastline and say hello to our resident dolphin Fungie. Both are a must if you come to visit the area.

At Dingle Surf our ethos is that surfing is for everyone, no matter your natural ability or the amount of time you are able to devote to it. With over 25 years experience of working and living around surfing and the industry we like to consider ourselves the foremost experts in the field. It is our promise to you that we will never over sell a product that isn't right for you and your ability.
