First off, the European Association of Surfing Doctors (EASD) is delighted to announce “Meet in Ireland” (Fáilte Ireland/Irish Tourism Development Authority) as sponsor for Conference 2014!

“Meet in Ireland” will provide overseas marketing and promotional support for the 3rd Annual Conference in Surfing Medicine, 9th-13th September 2014, at The Glasshouse.

So many people have been asking about Sligo, the location for this year’s Conference. Well, there’s so much to say … where to start?

Wild Atlantic Way

Here it goes, the Irish Atlantic coast is spectacular … but don’t take our word … discover for yourself. Why not build in the surf trip of a lifetime and drive the Wild Atlantic Way en-route to Conference 2014?

And when you arrive in Sligo, here’s fifteen reasons why Strandhill (just minutes by car from our Conference HQ, The Glasshouse) will blow your mind!

Don’t forget your walking boots. Check out the Sligo Walking Guide and take your pick of any one of the wonderful walks on offer. From an idle stroll to a reinvigorating trek, sandy beaches to craggy mountain edge, it’s all there in the NW.

Come and explore Ireland, for every suggestion I include, there’s another ten places I have left out!

Sometimes words are just inadequate, so I’ll let the photos do the talking…
