Embark on a voyage from the scenic Killybegs harbour, located in the remarkable County Donegal - previously acclaimed as ‘the coolest place on the planet’. Our destination is the base of Europe’s tallest accessible marine cliffs to witness the awe-inspiring Slieve League cliffs that ascend 1,972 feet / 601 metres above the sea level.
As we journey, we encounter many significant landmarks such as Rotten Island and St John’s Point lighthouses, Drumanoo Head, Fintra Beach, Muckross Head, and the renowned Giant’s Desk and Chair nestled in the bay, right in front of the majestic cliffs.
While the ship navigates near the cliffs, you have a superb opportunity to observe various caves & waterfalls speckled and tumbling down the cliff edges.
As we head back, view Benbulbin, the table-shaped mountain in Sligo at a distance, and towns dotting the coast of Donegal Bay.
Well known for being one of the world’s most bountiful waters is Donegal Bay. Throughout the summer, it’s typical to spy marine creatures like dolphins, porpoises, basking sharks, and tuna.
- WHERE DO YOU PARK? There is plenty of parking along the shore. There is a free car park beside the Ahoy Cafe just opposite where the boat is tied up. The muster point is at the head of the breakwater on the Small Craft Harbour, but we ask that passengers kindly do not park here as the pier is very busy with new boats being built.
