Gweedore is one of the nicest parts of what is a spectacular county and Bunbeg is right in the heart of the area.
We hope we have the name right for this one (it might also be called Tra Mor). Anyway, this is an attractive family type beach, good for swimming and playing in the water. The old wreck a bit out from the beach is an added attraction but clearly should only be looked at.
There is a good stretch to Bunbeg so you can have a decent walk here. It’s also reasonably well protected, so you are likely to get your swim without too much choppy water.

From the town of Gweedore take the R 258 which will bring you to Bunbeg itself. The beach is located just outside the town and watch out for a sign-posted left turn.
