Description
Ards Forest Park, Creeslough, Sheephaven Bay, County Donegal, Ireland
Sheltered on the tip of Ards Forest Park between 2 headlands in the shadow of the majestic Muckish mountain can be found this little hidden sandy cove, locally known as ‘The Lucky Shell Beach’. It has gained its name due to the variety and abundance of beautiful seashells that can be found scattered around there. Whilst here you can find your own lucky charm. Simply take a small shell that catches your eye and keep it on you to gain good luck!
What I find so attractive about this cove is how it is actually a forest that rolls onto a beach unlike other beaches which have very few trees growing nearby. Could you imagine what it would have been like for early settlers who travelled through this dense forest to be greeted at the end of their adventure by one of the most stunning looking beaches in Ireland
