Get around

See
  • 🌍 Fanad Head and Lighthouse.  
  • The Great Arch, Between Portsalon and Lighthouse (hard). there is a signpost for it. 

Itineraries
  • The Atlantic Drive is signposted and takes you around the peninsula. However, it is easy to get lost as the region is full of interlacing crossroads and taking a wrong turn at an unsignposted intersection is almost inevitable. The best thing to do is enjoy the experience and find your own way around.

Do

  • Portsalon Golfcourse. 

Eat
  • Ripples Restaurant

Drink
  • The Lighthouse Tavern (1 km from Lighthouse at Fanad Head). Friendly family run pub with a great atmosphere and genuine hospitality.

  • The Fanad Lodge. Friendly family run pub with a great atmosphere and genuine hospitality. 

Stay safe

The main danger when travelling in this region is the roads, or lack of them! Travelling on the coastal roads can be hair-raising for those inexperienced with Irish driving. Roads are narrow and twisting, many hug the cliff-face and the driver will not have the time or inclination to admire the surrounding scenery!
