Killahoey strand/Dunfanaghy beach: no problem social distancing here!
I looked up the blue flag beaches in Donegal and this was named. It is incredibly impressive, vast and clean. It had lifeguards, portaloos (no toilet paper though!), bins (though full :( ) and free parking. It was very busy although it is small enough given the popularity of the beach. We turned into the golf club to get to the beach carpark. It is incredibly easy to social distance here. There was a warning to keep dogs on leashes and to be careful of soft sand near the river as well as low & high tide times. There are huge dunes for kids to play on. Just amazing. We came here and also checked out the other blue flag beach of Marble Hill Strand (10 mins away). Would highly recommend and will definitely return one day. I defy anyone not to be impressed with this beach.

Wow
Who could argue that Donegal is stunning! Dunfanaghy beach lives up to expectations. Gorgeous long wide white stretch of sand with shallow waters. We were blessed with blue skies on the day we visited. Just a beautiful place to be. Lovely to see the horses up and down the beach

A beautiful spot
This was an absolutely stunning place for a day out. The village itself is home to some lovely places to eat and the shops in the town sold high quality items which I have not seen elsewhere- I especially recommend Olivia’s for clothes- they were beautiful and I had needs up buying several items.
