Hen & Stag Surf Adventures at Troggs Surf School, Portrush

Portrush, Northern Ireland, is a rugged coastal town with Atlantic waves that have earned a reputation among surfers worldwide. On this stretch of the Causeway Coast, Troggs Surf School offers hen and stag parties a thrilling alternative to the usual celebrations. Their signature experience is a focused 2-hour surf lesson guided by ISA-qualified instructors who know how to match skill levels with the local surf conditions. This isn’t just about catching waves—it’s about sinking into the wild energy of Portrush’s beaches, where basalt cliffs frame the horizon and the sea breeze carries salt and spruce. The school’s instructors bring a wealth of experience to the water, making the lesson both safe and challenging regardless of previous surfing knowledge.

Participants during these sessions not only get a dynamic workout but join a tight-knit group experience—the kind where laughter and high-fives warm you up as much as the sun peeking through clouds. Troggs Surf School includes a photo package to capture wipeouts, triumphs, and the sheer joy of riding the famous breaks of Portrush. As a destination, Portrush sits just north of Northern Ireland’s largest city, Belfast, and offers a unique blend of coastal wildness and accessible adventure travel.

What sets Troggs apart is the way it channels the local surf culture combined with professional guidance, making stag and hen parties simultaneously fun and memorable outdoor events. The basalt outcrops and rugged headlands here create consistent surf, attracting both beginners and experienced riders. Taking a break from the usual bar scene, these group sessions deliver a fresh take on pre-wedding festivities with the salty chill of the Atlantic and the rhythm of the sea at their core.
