While Carrowkeel itself is a prehistoric site, the best time to visit the surrounding region of County Donegal is generally during the summer months, from June to August.During this period, the weather in County Donegal is typically at its mildest and driest, making it ideal for exploring the outdoor attractions. You'll find longer daylight hours, providing ample time for sightseeing and enjoying the stunning coastal scenery, including areas like the Slieve League cliffs or the beaches of the Wild Atlantic Way. This is also when most local tourist services and attractions are fully operational, offering a full range of experiences.For those who prefer fewer crowds and are happy with slightly cooler temperatures, late spring (April-May) or early autumn (September-October) can also be excellent choices. The landscape is often particularly beautiful during these shoulder seasons, with wildflowers in spring and rich colours in autumn. You might also find better value on accommodation outside of peak season.
