Being a good coach does not always mean that you have to be an Irish Champion, (although beating one or two of them in competition heats 20 years ago helps!)
Since opening the school in 1998 Paul, one of the owners of Oceanics, has been instructing surfing and giving advice to all levels of surfers. Completing the Australian Surfing Federation's Advanced Coaching Course in 2004, enhanced his qualification as a surf instructor. This combined with over 25yrs of surfing experience and travel allows Oceanics to be one of the leaders in teaching surfing at an advanced level in Ireland.
