“Muirtí/Atlantic Coast Lifeguards provided my initial training to qualify as a lifeguard for my role at Center Parcs. A few years later, he also trained me up to Trainer/Assessor level. His courses are always fun and engaging while keeping the safety element at the forefront at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending Muirtí/Atlantic Coast Lifeguards to anyone seeking a professional qualification in water safety.”

Our Customers
I completed my first ever Lifeguard course (NPLQ) with Atlantic Coast Lifeguards. The course was fun and very engaging and showed the career potential there is within the Leisure industry. A few years later I then proceeded to complete my NPLQ Trainer/Assessor with ACL which again was fun and extremely engaging covering a wide range of teaching techniques. Muirtí was the trainer for both my courses and has always been happy to answer any questions I have had since the courses have finished, failing that he always knows which direction to point me which speaks volumes of the contacts and network he has access to within Ireland.

This will be my third time renewing my beach lifeguard certification with Muirti at ACL. I decided to turn my passion of surfing and open water swimming into a really great summer job. I am currently in college and the courses suit really well with my schedule and its a great way to spend the summer at the beach. You can be sure that with ACL you are getting all the up to date training and skill you need to work as a confident beach lifeguard!

I have renewed my qualifications with Atlantic Lifeguards for years now and always find the whole process from booking to finish very easy and professional. Muirti is always welcoming and creates a fantastic learning environment with plenty of enthusiasm and vast knowledge base. Having my back lifeguard qualification has allowed me to go onto being a trainer assessor and for three years now I have been the beach lifeguard supervisor for Donegal county council, which was made possible by having optioned my NBLQ qualification all those years ago.
