Saldanha Head marks the rugged southern boundary of the famous Portsalon beach. This headland is named after the British frigate HMS Saldanha, which was shipwrecked here in December 1811 during a severe storm, a tragedy in which all on board perished. Today, it is an impressive viewpoint where the steep cliffs of the Knockalla Mountains meet the waters of Lough Swilly. Hikers exploring the coastline will find a raw and unspoiled landscape here with sweeping views over the bay and the distant Inishowen coast.
