The impressive Inishowen 100 has been named as the most breathtaking coastal drive in Ireland.
We Love Ireland placed the Donegal route as number one on their list of five truly scenic drives.
The Inishowen 100 is a 100 mile (160km) coastal driving route across Ireland’s largest peninsula, where travellers are treated to amazing views of scenic beaches and historical gems.

The Go Visit Inishowen tourism team are delighted with the inclusion on this influential list, which brings national recognition to the much-loved route. We Love Ireland has a Facebook following of around 300,000, so the listing is sure to put Inishowen on the map of roadtrippers this summer.
Hugh Callaghan, Marketing and Digital Officer at Go Visit Inishowen said: “The Inishowen 100 has been a favourite scenic route to drive, cycle and walk for many years here in the Inishowen Peninsula.
“The Wild Atlantic Way, which for the most part follows this formally established route, has successfully attracted more people to the region to enjoy this one of a kind coastal drive.
“To be recognized as the top coastal drive in Ireland is great for the region and it’s testament to the natural beauty that Inishowen has to offer.
“Everyone here at the Explore Inishowen Tourist Office are delighted to receive this recognition, and we hope it will encourage anyone who has not yet travelled this route to get their car packed up and get on the road to Inishowen.”
