    It's not a spot that is going to become crowded, the plane don't take boards and the ferry is once a week!

    There's loads of spots along the coast waiting to be discovered.
    There's a reef in Clare which works in certain circumstances.
    More for bodyboarding really, but it spits you out into deeper waterwater at the end.
    I used to bass fish a lot, there's even waves near loop head....

    Pretty sure Loganair don't fly to Nepal!! Almost certain they don't operate out to any Irish islands either.

    The simple fact that there wasn't a single soft west Clare accent in the video should be enough to rule out Oiléain na hArann.

    Not to mention the GB regs on vehicles, "tatties" , scottish accents and the croft (typically associated with a specific area......)
