Image:Moville LochFoyle Donegal 2004 SeanMcClean.jpg Moville is a town in County Donegal in the northwest of Ireland. Located on the western shore of Lough Foyle and about 17 miles from Derry which lies across the border in Northern Ireland. Although it has a fishing pier, it is old and Greencastle commercial fishing pier is only a few miles away.
An annual regatta is held every year in August, and has done so since early in the 19th century. In older times the one-man punt was popular, whereas nowadays the race of the home made rafts brings competitors from many counties and large watching crowds.
