An Irish surf documentary which looks at the history of big-weave surfing in the country has received critical acclaim.
The film, Sea Fever, documents the history of big-wave surfing from the early 1960s up to the current scene on Ireland's Atlantic Coast.
Steve England from UK surf mag Carve described Sea Fever as a "soulful insight" into the growth of big-wave surfing in Ireland.
He added: "With dramatic footage and eloquent insight from Irish pioneers and the new Irish professional surfers it captures the spirit and addresses many questions with honesty and integrity."
Sea Fever also features surfers taking on 50-foot waves at Aileens, off the Cliffs of Moher.
The Irish Independent also heaped praise on the film, describing it as "slickly edited" with "jaw-dropping" footage of surfers.
Earlier this month Ireland was described as an ideal for country for surfing by enthusiasts there. Despite the cold temperatures Ireland was said to be ideal for surfing due to it having so much coastline.
