    This is the beating heart of Downings. The pier is not only a mooring place for the local fishing fleet, but also a fantastic viewpoint. From the quay, you have an unobstructed view of the glittering bay, with the contours of Ards Forest Park on the other side and, in the distance, the unmistakable ridge of Muckish Mountain. Photo tip: Aim your camera westwards over the water for a beautiful composition of boats, blue depths, and the distant Donegal mountains.
