If you are planning a hen or stag do in Northern Ireland and want something that feels genuinely memorable, Portrush Surf School offers an experience that goes far beyond the usual bar crawl. Set on the North Coast, our hen and stag surf sessions combine adventure, laughs, and proper organisation, all in one of the most popular coastal towns in the country.

With over ten years of experience running group surf and paddle board sessions, we have built a reputation as the North Coast’s hen and stag party specialists. From small, relaxed groups to large, high-energy parties, every session is tailored to suit your group, your ability levels, and the kind of day you want to have.

Why Choose Portrush Surf School for Your Hen or Stag Do?

Portrush is one of the most popular destinations for group celebrations in Northern Ireland. It offers beaches, nightlife, great food, and a setting that feels special without being over the top.

What sets Portrush Surf School apart is our exclusive base at Portrush Yacht Club. This allows us to offer a smooth, start-to-finish experience, with check-in, changing rooms, showers, food, and drinks all in one location. No rushing around and no unnecessary stress. Just a well-run day that flows.

We have taken hundreds of hen and stag parties into the ocean over the years, and we know how to strike the right balance between fun, safety, and flexibility.

Hen & Stag Activities We Offer

We offer a wide range of activities that work perfectly for hen and stag groups. Sessions can be booked individually or combined to create a full day on the North Coast.

Group Surf Lessons

Our most popular option for hen and stag parties. Group surf lessons are energetic, inclusive, and designed so everyone can get involved, regardless of experience. From first-timers to those who have surfed before, the focus is on laughs, confidence, and getting everyone standing up on a board.

Paddle Board Lessons

Stand-up paddle boarding is a great alternative or add-on for groups looking for something slightly more relaxed. It suits mixed-ability groups and offers plenty of opportunity for balance challenges, fun moments, and group photos.

Sunset Paddle Board Lessons

Sunset paddle board sessions offer a calmer pace and incredible views as the sun sets over the North Coast. They are ideal for hen and stag groups who want something memorable without going full throttle.

Giant SUP

Giant SUP is all about laughs and teamwork. Multiple people on one board, plenty of splashes, and a lot of shouting encouragement. It is a brilliant icebreaker and works especially well for groups looking for something light-hearted and competitive.

Private Lessons

Private surf or paddle board lessons allow us to tailor the session completely around your group. This option is ideal for smaller parties or those who want more one-to-one coaching alongside the fun.

Family Sessions and Mixed Groups

Not all hen and stag groups are the same. We regularly run mixed-age and family-friendly sessions, making it easy to include everyone who wants to be part of the day.

Corporate Days and Group Events

Alongside hen and stag parties, we also run corporate days and larger group events. The same level of organisation, safety, and attention to detail applies, just adapted to suit the group.

What’s Included in Your Hen or Stag Session

Every booking includes everything you need for a smooth and enjoyable day on the water.

All equipment is provided, including surfboards, paddle boards, wetsuits, and accessories. Each session includes two full hours of water time, with a thirty-minute check-in beforehand and time afterwards for showers and changing.

You will have access to private changing rooms and hot showers, as well as on-site café and bar facilities at Portrush Yacht Club. All sessions are focused on fun and safety and are supervised by qualified surf instructors, with RNLI beach lifeguards on duty.

Advance booking is strongly recommended, especially during peak season, as hen and stag slots fill quickly.

Deluxe Hen & Stag Party Package

For groups looking to take things up a level, the Deluxe Hen and Stag Party Package adds extra touches that turn a great session into a standout day.

The hen or stag attends the session free of charge and receives a Portrush Surf School T-shirt as a keepsake. Drinks such as prosecco, beers, or soft drinks are provided on the beach after your session, along with grazing food boxes supplied by local business Fig Tree Lane.

We also provide wedding and bride-to-be props for the session and photo opportunities, along with exclusive use of the Portrush Yacht Club bars and café. If you need help organising a special dinner reservation afterwards, just ask. We know the area well and are happy to help.

If you have any special requests, we will always do our best to accommodate them.
