The stunning scenery and bright natural light of the peninsula has attracted artists for generations : Maurice Wilks, Derek Hill, Norah McGuinness, renowned English print-maker, Norman Ackroyd and celebrated Dutch photographer Jan Voster.

In Ballyliffin, the artistic tradition continues and visitors can drop into a beautiful gallery in the village which has works at very competitive prices. Within a short drive of the village, artists welcome visitors to their studios at Carndonagh, Malin, Culdaff, Carrowmena, Buncrana and Moville, which has a unique pottery.

The Rodaigh Gallery in Carndonagh exhibits a wide range of local works. Visitors can also visit Glendowen Craft Studio on the R238 and view a selection of Donegal tweed made in the Studio.
