Bundoran
Resting on the south coast of County Donegal, Bundoran is one of Ireland's most popular seaside resorts, a favorite haunt of the Irish from both the north and the south. Somewhat ambitiously, the tourist board labels Bundoran "Ireland's Capital of Fun."
The place has worked hard to sell its big draw-the quality of its surfing waves. In recent years it has attracted water warriors from Hawaii, South Africa, Brazil, Australia, and Germany-they can't all be wrong about this surf hot spot.
