Not bad as a base but Letterkenny is a grim spot imo. Killybegs is quite nice though, What parts of the county you planning to do?

Any recommendations for a whale watching boat trip? There is one in Cork with decent reviews.

Good choice you made with Killybegs you are beside the nicest place in Ireland, Kilcar. If the weather is good you shouldn’t be disappointed anyway plenty of things to visit. The secret waterfall in Largy, Muckross head, Sliabh Liag, Silver strand no shortage of things to see, if the weather is good Sliabh Liag boat tour is great too. Just follow the wild Atlantic Way in by Kilcar and to Glen and you could do a nice loop coming back around by Glengesh pass even Ardara before coming back to Killybegs. Plenty options in Killybegs for food too.

A bit like yourself in Lille.  Never seen a man so nervous in his life. I would say if you hadn’t of done what you were told that night it would have been your last away game.

There is murmurings that inter county travel won’t even be allowed come summer, I really hope it’s not the case, as I look forward to bumping into you as we tour Donegal also LOL

Would advise it. We were out on the boat for 2 and a half hours. Didn't see anything the first hour and a half but it was still enjoyable. The final hour I couldn't get over the amount of dolphins and whales that we seen. Didn't expect so many at all!
