Magilligan Point


Magilligan Point seen from close to Gortmore viewing point.
The field nearest to the camera runs to the edge of a cliff, which drops down to the lowland below.

The sea is to the right of the Point, with Lough Foyle to the left. The hills in the background are part of the Inishowen Peninsula in Co Donegal.

The Point is partly a Nature Reserve and partly a British Army Firing Range.

A small car ferry runs from the tip of the Point across to Greencastle on the Donegal coast.
