Donegal Photography Tour

The Donegal photography tour takes place among some of the most beautiful, and rugged areas along The Wild Atlantic Way. We will be staying in Donegal four Nights, and spend our days exploring the truly breathtaking sites offered here.  

Donegal

Donegal (Wild Atlantic Way)

Donegal, although located at the most Northernly point on our little Island, is actually considered a part of the Republic of Ireland (this would be a good time to switch your sterling to euro).  It is unarguably one of the most stunning counties in all of Ireland. There are endless things to see and do here. The relatively unexplored mountains, beaches and rugged coastline are what make it an absolute must-do experience for locals and travellers alike; genuinely the perfect spot for a photography enthusiast’s.

What To Expect

On this Donegal photography tour we will get out to capture those perfect, picturesque moments. To do this, we will be up for Sunrise to try and capture that golden morning light. In the evenings we will be out shooting Sunset in some truly remarkable locations. The tour consists of 3-6 participants. These small group sizes allow us access to some of the special locations that the big tours can’t reach. Brace yourself for adventure packed days with all the charm that Ireland has to offer.           

Who Is It For

This tour is for the adventurous among us. The people who crave getting outside and exploring. It’s for the people who wish to experience Irish culture and have a good time doing it. This tour is for both photographers and non photographers; everyone will get something out of this trip!

Day 1 – On the first day we will meet in Belfast, or another suitable location (guest arrival locations & times varying). From here we travel into Donegal and check into our accommodation before exploring the local area for sunset. 

Day 2 -We will be up early to catch the sunrise at the Slieve League Cliffs. Once we have captured what we’re after, it’s time for breakfast, and then immediately on to Arranmore Island, where we will be shooting sunset and staying for the night.

Day – 3 We shoot sunrise on Arranmore Island then catch the boat back to the mainland. From here it’s off to Irelands’ most remote, inhabited Island; Tory Island, where we will spend our time shooting, exploring, and staying the night.

Day 4 – After we shoot sunrise on Tory Island we make for Fanad Head to shoot sunset, and check into our accommodation for the night.
