Ceann Sratha
Ceann Sratha sits at 286 ft along the Wild Atlantic Way, facing 300°, with the land dropping 276 ft within 600 m of the overlook. Inis Tuaisceart, a peak reaching 456 ft, lies to the west-southwest at a distance of 4.9 mi. The orientation puts the view roughly 30° off a direct sunset alignment, so evening light arrives at an angle rather than straight on.

The previous stop along the route is Ceann Sléibhe, and the next is Viewpoint.
