AVOID, AVOID, AVOID. The barrier was open so we drove down to what is one of my fav beaches. Had a stroll on the beach. Went back to the van for a coffee. 2 mins later we were confronted by the police who told us we had no right to park there, even though it was only 3pm. If we didnt move they would block us in. Never again visiting this part of Donegal. They can shove it..
Im Mai 2024 war die Barriere offen. Sonst 2m. Es geht 30% bergab, ist aber mit unserem Teilintegriertem kein Problem gewesen. Auch rauf gut zu fahren. Traumhaft direkt am Strand, ruhig. Morgens ab 7 Uhr kommen die ersten Badegäste. Selten so schön und ruhig gestanden. Man kann gut mit dem Hund Gassi gehen.
La barrière était ouverte mais la pente est vraiment impressionnante,30%, j’ai fait marche arrière
2m barrier on at main road is not accessible to campervans/motorhomes anymore .....at the clocktower entry it has now been fenced off with a gate to enter but the gate was locked today
Contrary to the road signs, the area accessed via the clock tower is very definitely closed to vehicles of any type. Mounds of rocks and soil have been used to lose off the parking areas and the gate is locked (01/10/22). Turning was difficult in a small camper, anything bigger would need to reverse.
Wir haben auf dem Parkplatz auf der Wiese geparkt. Der Zugang ist über das Wohngebiet beim Clock Tower. Leider gibt es mit Vodafone keinen Internetempfang. Schade, da es ein wirklich schöner Strand ist. Der andere Parkplatz, asphaltiert, hatte heute (14.9.2022) keine Höhenbeschränkung
Beautiful beach with free parking for campers. Direct access to the beach. Access from the gate beside the Clocktower Hotel. Open from May until the end of September. No height limit
2m Schranke!! Deshalb nur 1 Stern.
Large field for 100 vans behind sand dunes. Beach 1 min. Very quiet. No services but portaloo on beach car park. Waterfall in wood.
Fintra beach parking update: The council has once again this year agreed with the landowner to lease a parking area to facilitate beach users, campers etc. This agreement is from June 1st 22 to 30th September 22. access for motor homes will be via the Clocktower
Visited here and area behind clock tower blocked by gates. No access at all, alternative route to beach further along has a 2 m barrier. We moved on.
Perfect park up for a night. No services. Easy access to the beach, very quiet at night
As mentioned by others stayed in the green behind the Clock Tower. Had a glass of wine on the dunes watching the sunset and a pod of dolphins playing in the bay. Idyllic
We stayed in the green behind the clock tower as mentioned in previous reviews. Clean, quiet, 2 mins from the beach. No imenities but there are portaloos a short walk away at the main beach car park. FREE
This is a post from the local Councillor in killybegs co. Donegal regarding fintra beach. Access to the overflow carpark and for campervans is now via the Clock Tower. The gate will open today. Please stick to the pathway when using the beach. Protect the sand dunes. The main carpark down to the beach has a 2m height restriction barrier put back in place. All campervans visit the beach via the Clock Tower.
If you take the left turn before this spot (coming from Donegal) you come down to a big open grass square and then it’s a short walk over the dunes to the beach - perfect spot for a night camping.
A great spot, it has a tap by the beginning of the car park. First gear job to descend the short very steep hill, but worth it.
Great little spot, quiet. enough space for about 10 campers. Directly on the beach
