Kinnagoe Bay

Reviewed By C_and_H_11 - Dublin, Ireland

Kinnagoe Beach is truly a little gem & is different from many of the beaches in Donegal in that it's smaller & more sheltered & surrounded by tree lined cliffs. It has very unusual sea worn rock formations, which are well worth exploring. The sand is golden which is typical of the fabulous beaches of Co Donegal. It's about halfway between Greencastle & Ballymagaraghy. Access is limited as the road is extremely steep close to the beach, so campervans beware!!

Culdaff Beach

Reviewed By Adele3W - Belfast, United Kingdom

Love this beach particularly for an evening walk, beautiful light on the golden sands, great high waves crashing on the dark rocks at the far end and fairly quiet and peaceful.

Glenevin Waterfall

Reviewed By mikemor66 - Ellesmere Port, United Kingdom

A good walk on a lazy afternoon and there had been a bit of rain before so when we got to the waterfall it had a good flow, on a sunny afternoon you can stop half way and have a picnic and the little ones can hunt for the fairy houses

Moville Shore Path

Reviewed By NPI338 - Coleraine, United Kingdom

We walked this path on two different days and it was popular. There are plenty of seats along the way, particularly at the Moville end. The total walk is about 3km from the Moville end with a small car park at 2.2km and finishing at a small beach. A really pleasant walk with beautiful views across the Foyle lough.
