Greencastle cruise port guide
The Eire Force is strong along the Wild Atlantic Way. Scout the filming sites of Star Wars movies on the rugged cape of Mailin Head. Taste the legends of Donegal County in gin and whiskey at Sliabh Liag Distillery. Take a swing at the two courses at Ballyliffin, which golfing superstar Rory McIIroy proclaims, “are must-play championship links”. Step back in time at Grianan of Aileach, a massive man-made stone ring fort and one of Gaelic Ireland’s royal sites. Go with the flow along the Lough Foyle to the bold Greencastle, built in 1305 by the Earl of Ulster. Or delver deeper into nearby Derry to see how its “Troubles” have eased into a vibrant and beautiful community. And never forget, “Go mbeidh an fórsa leat” or “May the force be with you”!
About Greencastle
Greencastle is a commercial fishing port in County Donegal, Ireland, on the western shores of Lough Foyle, also used as a tender port for cruise ships visiting Derry.
The castle built in 1305 (Northburgh Castle), built to provide an Anglo-Norman power base in the Northwest, is the key historic attraction. The castle's name derives from the green freestone with which it was built. A Martello Fort built around 1800 to repel Napoleon stands beside the Norman ruin.
