About

Magilligan occupies a large, low-lying peninsula at the northwestern tip of the Causeway Coast and Glens. The landscape is dominated by the extensive Magilligan dune system, one of the largest in Ireland, and the flat, reclaimed farmland behind it. The area looks directly across the wide mouth of Lough Foyle to County Donegal. The shoreline consists of long, sandy beaches and the rugged Binevenagh mountain forms a dramatic inland backdrop to the south.

The ward is a sparsely populated rural area, with small settlements like Bellarena and Magilligan Point. The environment is significant, with the dunes, foreshore, and mudflats designated as a special area of conservation. The distinctive Magilligan Prison and a historic military fort are located here. Economic activity is primarily agricultural, with some tourism focused on the natural coastal scenery and the ferry link to Greencastle.
