there is a heap of surfschools all around that rent out boards.
in el sardinero there is a few surf shops/schools aswell.(for example blackballsurf.ie rent out boards for a ton for a week)

somo would probably have the best selection as regards board rental.and there is a ferry that runs across the bay to there every 1/2 hour.
public transport is excellent between the city and towns but buses will only drop you to within the vicinity of the surf.

there is plenty accomodation but it depends on what you want.wether to be based in the city which is only a few mins from the surf spots or vice versa.
pm me if you have any more question. longboardirl/hang loose.jpg
