A picturesque beach with soft white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters, surrounded by lush green hills and towering cliffs, offering a serene and secluded spot for relaxation and sunbathing.
Tried to visit grey fort, waste of time locked up tight like so many wasted opportunities. Anyway followed path round to Helen's bay, which if you time it right, like I did, was lovely. Quiet (apart from a few screamers, don't you get them everywhere nowadays, can't they just talk instead of scream) midweek and midday it was just lovely sitting listening to the waves and the enjoying the view. Now at weekends or bank holidays, I'm sure a different story but today, beautiful
Absolutely lovely place!
Go dive in the helen's bay beach its amazing fun there. Walk, play, dive , get your friends and have a barbecue party.
Wonderful place worth a visit
Really nice area , but the only car park for the beach doesn't open until 9 O'clock?? , I'm not sure why ??, but the surrounding roads are all double yellow lined .. so no parking.. I could see residents getting annoyed with the cars parking outside their houses, but there is a car park, please open it for the people that are on the go before 9am..
Lovely beach and a great coastal walk starting here all the way to Bangor
Wheelchair-accessible car park
Good for kids
