the Fanad Head drive is a must; the round trip from & back to our place is a nice & easy day excursion on which you will enjoy some of the most stunning coastline scenery. The round trip drive itself will take about 2.5 hours but you will want to stop in Ramelton (Conway's Pub) and Ballymastocker (Portsalon) Beach, so don't make any other route plans for the rest of the day :-)
