Magheroarty beach is a curve of almost pink sand with views to the nearby islands of Inishbofin and Tory to one side and the headland of Horn Head to the other. One of the two ferries that take foot passengers to Tory Island leaves from the pier at Magheroarty daily (weather permitting). For anyone wishing to go to Tory, there is a fairly big carpark at the pier where your car can be left (check locally if any payment applies).
