Ireland's northernmost point, occasionally cited for aurora during strong storms. No dedicated tourism infrastructure for aurora specifically — include as an opportunistic mention only, not a planned destination.
Aurora is a geomagnetic event — it cannot be predicted days in advance. Check the live Kp forecast on the evening you plan to go out, and go if conditions look good.
Kp note: No Kp figure of any kind found for this destination — the dossier explicitly flags it as 'marginal, storm-dependent, no dedicated aurora tourism infrastructure. Include only as opportunistic.' Kept as a genuine null rather than forcing a latitude-band estimate the source material doesn't support.
Gateway: Malin Head, Co. Donegal
No dedicated viewing sites — this is an opportunistic destination for people already visiting the area. Any dark-sky location away from town lights will work if conditions are right.
