Sheephaven Bay

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

The gaelic name Cuan na gCaorach (Haven of the Sheep) is a neologism, from a mistranslation of Cuan na gCurrach, The Bay or Haven of the Currachs (boats). When the name was translated to English, the word Ship (used by monoglot locals for 'boat') was misheard as "sheep".
