Five Finger Strand
Five Finger Strand is the remote Inishowen beach below Cranny Hill and Carrickabraghy Castle, a long Donegal sandline where the setting and solitude matter almost as much as the surf. It is the kind of Atlantic beach that feels memorable because of the place around it, not just the wave face.
