Don’t let the name stop you visiting 

Murder Hole Beach can be located on the Melmore Head Peninsula in County Donegal. It is surrounded by huge cliffs, hills, dunes, and small hidden caves. There is a small tidal island called ‘Rough Island’ that is roughly 15 meters from shore that splits the beach into 2 at high tide. Its official name is Boyeeghter Strand although Murder Hole Beach is more commonly used and sounds more exciting. It is ‘rumored’ to originate in the 1800s when a young woman either fell or was pushed off the nearby cliffs.
