About Lisfannon

Lisfannon is a sheltered beach on the Inishowen peninsula near Buncrana, tucked into the inner reaches of Lough Swilly. It rarely sees the bigger Atlantic swells but works on the right N–NW direction.

Works on NW to N swells with SE offshore winds. Mid tide is best. Beginner-friendly when it works.
