Killybegs is the most important fishing port in Ireland but also has plenty to offer tourists. North of Donegal Bay, Killybegs is a beautiful natural deepwater harbor opening up to the Atlantic Ocean. It is a lively fishing town and is gaining a reputation as a centre for water sports, good for self catering Killybegs.

It is a fish lovers delight with sea and river fishing and an array of fine restaurants all serving the local catch. An international sea angling festival is held in August and it makes a great base from which to explore the spectacular scenery of South-West Donegal.
