Bundoran Attractions

|
Bundoran (Bun Dobhrain, "Mouth of the Dobhran") is situated far to the north on the Atlantic coast of Ireland, on the N15 from Donegal to Sligo. This popular seaside resort, with excellent facilities for sport and recreation, lies on the south side of Donegal Bay, with Benbulben to the south of the town.
The beach of fine sand is flanked by a promenade, with cliffs at each end carved into fantastic shapes by the sea. From here there are a number of attractive walks. One of these goes north to the cliffs and caves on Aughrus Head, with the Puffing Hole, a funnel-like cavity through which water is ejected with great force. Beyond this is Tullan Strand, with a cairn, a dolmen and a stone circle.
