Nice excursion cafe with great food and cakes

Beautiful green park with magnificent trees

The orchids can be hard to spot in the longer grass, but look where the grass is lower and you might get lucky.

Limited access as it is propped up for never ending repairs.

Helen's Bay Beach is one of two excellent beaches found in Crawfordsburn Country Park. These beautiful sandy beaches are by far the best within the Belfast area and as such are exceptionally popular and well used. Helen's Bay Beach is gently shelving and has excellent water quality making it ideal for bathing. The country park provides an excellent back drop to the beach, with wooded headlands, meadows, quality walks and good facilities. There are disabled toilets and disabled parking a short distance from the beach. A path suitable for wheelchair users leads from the car park to a path running adjacent to it. Nearby Crawfordsburn Country Park has a Cafe / Restaurant, Car Parking, Picnic Sites,Toilets, and a Visitor Centre.

Here a rocky outcrop provides some excellent views east toward Crawfordsburn Country Park and west toward Helen's Bay Beach, and, on a clear day, all the way to Belfast.

Beautiful sandy inlet on the shores of Crawfordsburn Country Park. You can enjoy some spectacular scenery and views toward Belfast Lough as well as a peek at the magnificent Crawfordsburn House which stands overlooking the sea.

19th-century folly and lookout tower near Bangor. Named after the 5th Baron's mother, Helen. He intended it as a shrine for poems - Tennyson's Helen's Tower is the best known of them. Well worth a stop off to explore the architecture.
