Muckross Head is a small peninsula in the parish of Kilcar about 10 km west of Killybegs, Co. Donegal, in north-western Ireland. It contains a popular rock-climbing area, noted for its unusual horizontally layered structure.
Muckross Head has two beaches, one of which is popular with surfers. That beach has a rip tide, coming in at both sides and sucking out in the middle, but is not particularly dangerous. The other beach some hundreds of metres away is a popular family beach which is safe for swimming but has a risk of rockfall. That beach also has a public car park and toilets in summer.
