Galleon in Ireland, dating from 1588
The fourth largest of the ships that made up the Spanish Armada, this requisitioned Venetian merchantman of 1,100 tons was lost in Kinnagoe Bay off the northern tip of the Inishowen Peninsula in September 1588. The wreck lies in shallow water approximately 100m offshore on the western extent of Kinnagoe Bay. Two rivers, Glenagivney River and the Long Glen River, flush fresh water into the Bay area through deep gullies that run down the slopes, one through the locally known Black Glen into Glenag
