Fishing

Sea angling is a thrilling sport. Around the Donegal coast you can fish for Shark, Conger Eel and plenty of other fish species. There are shipwrecks located off Donegal from the Spanish Armada and from the two World Wars.

Islands

Some of the larger islands, such as Arranmore, Owey and Tory Island have majestic cliff faces rising from the sea to 160 metres. Animal and birdlife abound. Smaller islands, like Rutland, Inishfree and Gola have sandy beaches which are peaceful, secluded places to go for swimming, walking, picnics etc.

These islands offer good fishing areas and sheltered fishing grounds away from strong winds so fishing can take place on most days regardless of wind direction.

Diving

The Loinnir is also available for day or half day charters. You can explore coastal and offshore wreck sites, caves, caverns, reefs, cliff faces, gullies and a large reef rising to half water depth to form a plateau type shape. Rare fish species can be seen and the seabed is level for miles around.
