POSTPONED - ISKA Meet 9th/10th August - Donegal
Posted: Sat Aug 02, 2014 8:25 pm
North West ISKA Meet
The final decision on where to go will be made on Thursday 7th Aug after a good look at the weather forecast for the weekend.
A possible plan is a trip to Fanad Head and back on Saturday and maybe Inishbofin, Inishdooey and Inishbeg on Sunday or visit one of the islands off the west coast of Donegal – Gola / Owey etc as a day trip. All planss are wind strength and direction dependant.
Check here again on Thursday evening for the final arrangements for Saturday. Sunday plans may be altered on Saturday after the days paddle.
Fanad Head:
Launch spot: Portsalon BUT at the main beach (C238 401 Sheet 2). There is a path from the large car parking area to the beach under the golf course pathway. The small beach beside the pier is too busy in summer and parking becomes an issue.
Official camping very close by: http://knockallacaravanpark.com/
Inishbofin/Inishdooey/Inishbeg:
Launch spot : Magheraroarty near the pier.( B899 333 Sheet 1)
There is NO CAMPING at Magheraroarty
Hostel: http://anoige.ie/Hostels/Our-Hostel-Gui ... Hostel.htm
Camping and Hostel: http://www.corcreggan.com/
Western Islands:
Launch spot for Gola: Magheragallon pier. (B793 266 Sheet 1)
Camping/Hostel : As for Inishbofin
