Sheephaven Bay

Sheephaven Bay or Sheep Haven (Irish: Cuan na gCaorach)[1] is a broad, shallow inlet on the north coast of County Donegal, Ireland.

[2] Bounded by the peninsulas of Rosguill to the east and Horn Head (Irish: Corrán Binne) to the west, the bay is relatively protected from the full force of the Atlantic Ocean, and has supported a large herring fleet.

Some older maps say "Ship Haven", with Irish translation Cuan na Long, but this is considered incorrect.

[1] Sheephaven Bay is home to Doe Castle, located near Creeslough, which was built in the early 16th century.
