hi mike these are the directions we gave out for the world cup comp we ran a few years ago. Used to be possible to camp at magheraroarty but not any more so the best bet is at the hostel/camping outside dunfannaghy or at a nearby beach. we will keep people posted here closer to the time. on the map the surf is to the left of the peer where the tory island ferry leaves from.

hope this helps
cheers clo
