Catch your first wave or improve your surf skills at Summer Surf Camp by Splash Sports Ltd., just outside San Diego. Experience vibrant ocean swells, expert instruction, and eco-friendly practices in a lively beachside setting.
Splash Sports Ltd. is a watersports provider based in Castlegregory, County Kerry, offering a range of coastal activities and on-site facilities.
Situated on the Maharees peninsula, the business operates a lively aquapark anchored by the Water Bongo, a water trampoline that features a walk-the-plank and a slide into the sea. The Water Bongo is presented as an energetic, family-friendly inflatable suitable as an introduction to water inflatables and group play.
Visitors can combine an aquapark session with additional activities promoted by the operator, including kayaking, paddleboarding, and surfing in the surrounding waters of the Maharees. These options allow families, groups and individual visitors to mix play and paddle-based adventures in a scenic coastal setting.
The site also includes the Béal Geal Sauna at Sandy Bay, described as a tranquil retreat with views toward the Slieve Mish Mountains. The sauna is noted as a quieter option for parents and older teens while younger children enjoy the Aquapark, enabling groups to remain together on the same shoreline while choosing different activity levels.
A Summer Surf Camp is listed among the business’s offerings; interested parties should consult the operator’s booking information for session dates, age ranges, and registration details. Safety equipment and basic instruction are referenced in the activity descriptions; guests are advised to review any age, fitness, and booking requirements before arrival. The combination of aquapark attractions, paddle sports and a coastal sauna creates varied options for memorable days on the Maharees.
