probably off the rocks at the bottom of the lighthouse at fanad head...although it is quiet enough at this time of the year

Be very careful here - large swells can completely submerge the rocks out of the blue.

Can be very dangerous at times.

If there is a big swell running, there is a beach just to the other side of the little point (you see it on your left as you're driving up towards to lighthouse) which is apparently good for flatfish if you fish near the freshwater stream which runs into it.
