Donegal has yet again been voted the most scenic place in Ireland.
This time, travel experience booking platform GoAdventure.com asked some of the country’s best photographers and travel Instagrammers to share their favourite scenic places in Ireland.
Of course we came out tops, hat-tipped by photographers for its scenery, beaches and – best of all – solitude.
Here’s what Irish photographers love about Donegal.
For digital and portrait photographer Danny, nothing compares to Donegal’s rugged coastal views. He says: “Donegal has some of the best beaches you’ll find anywhere in the world. It’s a bit out of the way compared to other famous coastal landmarks, like the Cliffs of Moher in Clare and not as well known as the Ring of Kerry, so you’ll often have the viewpoints all to yourself. It makes for great photo opportunities.”

Travel photographer and video editor Tom is besotted with a handful of locations in Donegal, including the Slieve League Cliffs and the Poisoned Glen. Describing how the region stole his heart, he says: “It’s something special. Nowhere in Ireland does beaches like Donegal does, they feel almost tropical at times.”
