The Crohy Head Sea Arch is a stunning natural rock formation on the west coast of County Donegal, Ireland. Carved by the Atlantic Ocean, this dramatic sea arch stands just off the rugged coastline, surrounded by cliffs and crashing waves.

Photography Tips

For stunning photos at Crohy Head Sea Arch, visit during sunset or golden hour for warm light and dramatic shadows. Use a wide-angle lens to capture the rugged cliffs and ocean. A tripod helps smooth the waves with long exposures. Experiment with different angles—shoot from higher ground for a unique perspective. Be mindful of the tide and slippery rocks for safety.
