Beautiful Ballywalter Beach! Lovely spot to stop and appreciate the white sand and the view. There are also some sculptures on the promenade and plenty of good ice cream shops on the sea front too.

Long, sandy beach which offers enjoyment for all. Bathers and walkers can make use of this expansive stretch, with its rock pools ready to explore. A small playground is located nearby, along with public toilets. At the Lime Kilns, a raised area provides great views of the Irish Sea coastline.

Plenty of facilities, and shelter opportunities. There is a shop right on the shore line by the car park. Rest up.

Ballywalter Beach is open all year round. There is disabled access and disabled parking bays. Water quality is Good.
