Sheephaven Bay or Sheep Haven (Irish: Cuan na gCaorach)[1] is a broad, shallow inlet on the north coast of County Donegal, Ireland.[2] Bounded by the peninsulae of Rosguill, to the east and Horn Head (Irish: Corrán Binne) to the west, the bay is relatively protected from the full force of the Atlantic Ocean, and has supported a vibrant herring fleet.
