Gweedore is part of the Gaeltacht region in north west County Donegal. It boasts beautiful views of the coast, particularly Bloody Foreland and is surprisingly populated for its remoteness. In the past, poor planning and overdevelopment means that there is a plethora of houses which takes away from the beauty of the scenery. It is located in the heart of the Gaeltacht and Irish is the predominant language of the area.

[edit] Get in

Carrickfinn airport, or Donegal Airport, is only about 10 kilometers from Gweedore and has car-hire facilities. Most visitors, though, arrive into Gweedore from Letterkenny or The Rosses, using their own transport or cars hired elsewhere. Gweedore is poorly served by bus services.

• Bloody Foreland, so called because of the red tint that this headland takes on when the sun is setting.

[edit] Talk

The main spoken language of the district is Irish, all locals are Irish speakers. You will hear English spoken by tourists and holiday makers, all locals speak Irish with each other. However you do not need to know Irish to get by in the district as every local is naturally bilingual in both Irish and English, but it would be nice to learn some Irish to impress the locals.
