The most beautiful gem set high on a cliff top overlooking the wild Atlantic ocean. It's 5 pounds in and well worth every penny. There's a small museum and this really isn't necessary as the stunning scenery speaks for itself. I would highly recommend a visit here. Take yourself back in history and soak up the beauty of the north of Ireland.

this is one of Ireland's secret beaches... absolutely beautiful. (Irish: Bá Chionn an Ghabha) is a secluded beach in Inishowen, County Donegal, Ireland. It is known for being the location of the wreck of the Armada ship La Trinidad Valencera on 16th September 1588, in memory of which a plaque is mounted. The beach is accessible by a weaving road from the top of the hill. There is a small car park at the beach which gets very busy during the summer.
