This blue flag beach overlooked by the lighthouse was popular with families and swimmers 🏊when my husband, toddler, baby and I checked it out. There is a walkway down to the beach but it's not really a beach for walking on (too small) or pushing a buggy on (sand too soft). There is a small car park and toilets and taps for rinsing off sand. It felt very safe and had a lovely feel to it. I'd recommend if you are east on the Inishowen peninsula, in Moville, Greencastle or Culdaff but then you have lots of options on this peninsula: Culdaff, Kinnagoe Bay, Pollan Strand, Five Fingers Strand, Buncrana Beach, Lisfannon & Lenan Strand to name a few. It depends what you want from your beach experience but once was enough for us on this trip.

This is a lovely spot overlooking Lough Foyle, the end of the road really as you can go no further. It's very quiet and peaceful. A reviewer said disapprovingly it was Stroove Lighthouse, not Shroove Lighthouse. It is neither. It is Inishowen Lighthouse.

Lovely sheltered beach with a car park close to it. The beach is not overly big but it wasn’t busy (it was raining!) Ideal for younger children wanting sandcastles and paddling fun. The lighthouse is part of the backdrop but you can’t get up close so it’s definitely not worth visiting just for the lighthouse, but if you want a beach this is great.
