  • Ballyhoorisky Point to Fanad Head Csac
    National Parks and Wildlife Service Conservation Plan for 2005-2010 Ballyhoorisky Point to Fanad Head cSAC Site Code 1975 Co. Donegal SUMMARY Introduction Ballyhoorisky Point to Fanad Head cSAC has been designated as a candidate Special Area of Conservation under the EU Habitats Directive. This site has been designated due to the presence of four Annex I habitats listed under the EU Habitats Directive: vegetated sea cliffs, perennial vegetation of stony banks, hard oligo-mesotropic waters with benthic vegetation of Chara species and oligotrophic waters containing very few minerals of sandy plains. This site is also designated due to the presence of the Slender Naiad, a species listed in Annex II of the EU Habitats Directive. Description of Ballyhoorisky Point to Fanad Head cSAC Ballyhoorisky Point to Fanad Head cSAC comprises the coastline around Fanad Head, in north Co. Donegal. Lough Swilly lies to the east and Fanad Head is located approximately 25km north of the small town of Milford. The site incorporates 1293ha of coastline including a zone of open marine water 200m from the coast and some adjacent terrestrial habitats. The vegetated sea cliffs are located around and to the south of Fanad Head. At Fanad Head the sea cliffs reach heights of 120m. The cliffs have a typical halophile (salt-loving) flora, with species such as Scurvygrass, Sea Campion and Sea Plantain occurring. This habitat also supports the Irish Red Data Book (Curtis & McGough, 1988) species, Scot’s Lovage. The perennial vegetation of stony banks (shingle) is found in sheltered bays around the coast. This habitat is quite dynamic and these banks are vegetated in more sheltered bays by typical species including Sea Sandwort, Ragwort and Sea Mayweed.
