From within the hostel there are ever changing breathtaking spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean [White Strand Bay], the headlands of Inishowen and Fanad Peninsulas and the Highlands of Donegal.. These ever changing seascapes and landscapes including spectacular sunsets/sunrises at Malin Head are especially very popular with photographers and artists.

The hostel at Malin Head is at a premier scenic rural location, which is a perfect base for touring, walking or cycling.

These routes highlight the local points of interest and facilities including:
where to collect semi-precious stones, places of historical interest;
