Rock Climbing

Muckross Head is a small peninsula about 10 km west of Killybegs and 3 km east of Kilcar

It contains a popular rock-climbing area, noted for its unusual horizontally layered structure.
The Muckross crag is quite popular because of the unusual climbing encountered there. It is a sea-cliff, situated above a partly tidal rock platform, and access is convenient.The overhanging nature of much of the rock makes climbing there quite strenuous, and yields some spectacular roof-climbing.

Sailing

Atlantic coastline makes the area around Killybegs one of the top locations for sailing.
