Popular around Killybready
Muff, derived from the Irish word 'Magh' (meaning 'plain') is a village near the mouth of the River Foyle as it converges into Lough Foyle. It's close to the border separating the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Due to its humorous name, the village gets frequent smirks from passersby and visitors. Despite recent proposals to rename it, such suggestions have been consistently rejected. Now, residents are embracing its double entendre fame, with merchandise like T-shirts, keyrings, and baseballs featuring the slogan 'I love Muff' being sold online. Since the early 17th century, the small town has celebrated summer with the annual 'Muff Festival'.

In this stretch of the road, if you look to the north, you can easily spot a beautiful building. It's the church of Tamlaghtard. Did you know that it is said to have been founded by St. Patrick?

This is a spectacular viewpoint looking across Lough Foyle to Binevenagh and Magilligan Point in County Derry. On a clear day you can see for miles into Northern Ireland and even Scotland.

Go and see this unique building before it falls into the sea! Coastal erosion has brought the temple very close to the edge of the cliff.

Stroove beach is a small beach which is sheltered from the prevailing Atlantic winds and a popular spot for swimming. If you're lucky you may spot seals or dolphin in the surf!
