I have been lucky to use the chance exploring Irelands coastline, waterfalls, nature, culture and some cool activities like Stand Up Paddleboarding or swimming with Dolphins. I tried to capture my experience in the best way possible by taking timelapse footage and using wide panorama shots in this travel video montage.
I hope you enjoy this Travel Video from Ireland and it gives you a little glimpse what traveling in the Northwest is like and what to do and see on a trip to Ireland - and yes, the Guinness Beer is a very important part, too! ;)

Sailing Eden - Rathlin O'Byrne Island and Teelin Harbour, Co Donegal, Ireland
This video is of a little solo cruse I did to Rathlin O'Byrne Island on the north west tip of Donegal bay and an over night stay in Teelin harbor.
This film is a lot longer then I have uploaded before and with no sound track, so i'd be interested to hear what you think. Are the shorter ones better?

World Adventurer Monty Halls promotes Donegal as a Family Friendly Adventure Destination.
In Chapter One Monty, Tam, Isla and Molly arrive in Donegal, landing at one of the world's most beautiful airports. Together they learn more about their Irish ancestry, immersing themselves in Donegal's culture and traditions.
TV personality and world adventurer Monty Halls, his wife Tamsyn and daughters Molly and Isla have been travelling all over the county filming with their company Seadog Productions this spring.
Donegal is no stranger to celebrity visitors. Since being named ‘Coolest Place on the Planet’ by National Geographic Traveller in 2017, Donegal has risen to new heights on the global tourism scale.
Monty had previously visited County Donegal and had the opportunity to view basking sharks at Malin Head. Having been to many exciting destinations worldwide, Monty said that his experience in viewing basking sharks at Malin Head was one of the most exciting wildlife encounters of his life.
Monty is well known for his BBC2 series ‘Great Escapes’ and he also presented the multi-award winning series ‘Great Barrier Reef’. In 2014 he worked on the ground-breaking expedition series ‘Lost Worlds’ for the Discovery Channel. Monty has written several books, and is a regular contributor to magazines and newspapers, many of them communicating his enthusiasm for the natural world. Monty has also worked with Channel 4, National Geographic, the History Channel, Channel 5, and the BBC. His most recent WWII's Great Escapes: The Freedom Trails was broadcast in 2017.
Monty Halls is a broadcaster, speaker, naturalist, former Royal Marine, marine biologist, travel writer and leadership specialist. His experience covers over two decades of leading teams in some of the most remote environments on earth, presenting wildlife and adventure documentaries. Most recently Monty and his family spent time on the Galapagos Islands filming ‘My Family and the Galapagos’.
So from the Galapagos Islands to Donegal on the Wild Atlantic Way, Monty and his family have experienced the very best of what our County has to offer. They showcase Donegal to a worldwide audience online as one of the world’s most amazing family friendly adventure destinations.
