Despite not being a desert destination, Ireland has quite a few sand surfing spots to offer and there is a small but very lively community of sandboarders near Wexford.
The Curracloe Sand Fest was held there as part of the Sandboarding World Tour in 2017.

Curracloe Beach – Wexford
Beach located about 10km north of Wexford and the main sandboarding hub of Northern Ireland. Dune Riders Ireland regularly organizes events there and has a shop that sells sandboards.
