Magheroaty
Magheroarty Beach, located in Magheroarty, County Donegal, Ireland, is a north-west facing exposed spot. It is a popular place for locals due to its consistent waves and wild atmosphere, featuring a long sandy beach and a nearby reef. There is also a small inland lagoon for calmer sessions offshore.
The spot mainly attracts windsurfers and surfers, but kitesurfers also venture here, particularly on the main beach where the waves build as you head south. Access is easy from the parking lot near the pier, and the place remains uncrowded even in good weather.
In summer, conditions are often flat, but winter brings solid sessions with north-west swells.
