Found on the beautiful peninsula between Dundrum Bay and Murlough Bay (Irish: Murlach, meaning 'sea inlet') Keel Point has perfect views of Slieve Donard, the highest peak in the Kingdom of the Mourne Mountains.

This picturesque spot is located between Dundrum Bay and Murlough Bay and offers impressive views of the surrounding countryside. The paths there lead through the Murlough National Nature Reserve, a 6,000-year-old dune system that is great for cycling. However, some sections can become slippery in wet weather, so care must be taken. A particular highlight is the Downshire Bridge, which connects the village of Dundrum with the nature reserve and provides a charming crossing over the bay.
