Dear TBEX Guest,
As part of your journey through Ireland’s untamed Donegal, we invite you to join a guided exploration of Malin Head and its environs, a tour designed for curious travellers seeking authentic experiences, rich storytelling, and a deeper sense of place.
This Deep Tourism experience is led by a local environmental scientist and gifted storyteller who will guide you through the geology, ecology, and mythology of Ireland’s most northerly seascape.
Beginning at McGrory’s in the coastal village of Culdaff, the tour travels along the scenic shores of Trawbreaga Bay and up to a view point of the dramatic post-glacial sand dunes at Five Fingers Strand.
At Malin Head, you’ll walk along primordial cliffs carved by waves and wind to create features such as the legendary Hell`s Hole Chasm and the Devil`s Footbridge. Walking on you will learn about the geological ties that link North West Ireland and North America. Further along the coastline you will discover mineral-rich storm beaches and unique plant life that has survived on these exposed cliff tops for Millenia.
To complete the experience, we return to McGrory’s for a meal that celebrates the flavours of the surrounding landscape. Our menus feature ingredients sourced from local waters and farms, including Atlantic-caught seafood, grass-fed meats and locally grown produce, all prepared with care and creativity.
You can choose from:
A two course lunch or dinner showcasing the best of local food (€25)
OR ..a relaxed option of soup, sandwich and a pint (€20)
All served in McGrory’s renowned Front Bar, a welcoming space where locals and visitors gather to share, stories and good company.
This is more than just a standard tour, it’s a chance to connect deeply with the land, the people, and the natural beauty of North Inishowen. In short, it offers an authentic experience of the region’s true character. We would love to welcome you during your time at TBEX.
