Beautiful views across Strangford Lough. You can have a lovely walk across the causeway to the island at low tide (slippery surface) and walk around the island. Be aware of the tides at all times, you can get stranded as the tide comes in very quickly!

It's a great place to clear your head.You can park up in the car park and eat your food there as there's bins for your rubbish.We love going here on summer evenings and taking the dog for a walk on the island.If that's not for you, then that's fine, you can sit in the car and look over the sea, as the car park is high up and gives you plenty of nice views. You could just sit there in the car and relax.

Have experienced both the high tide and low tide, as soon as its low tide pathaay to the island seems clear and walkable, be carefull of the pathway might be slippery some time. Nice place for your dogs as well.

Beautiful location at North West short of Strangford Lough. Ideal for picnic, or short walk across causeway or around island. Suitable for dogs. Beware of high tide making causeway uncrossable. Toilets open during day. Ruins of small house on island. Great views

Beautiful walk along the coast and the island. Just be careful of the changing of the tides, you don't want to get stuck!

Great spot for walk around rough island via causeway ,but check the tides first. Plenty of parking and toilets to,I go here also for easy access to water for some kayaking fun.

A wonderful spot to watch the birds from the causeway. Watch out for the tides otherwise you could get stranded out on the island! The island itself is perfect for a stroll and a great spot to watch birds sitting on nearby islands (with a scope). Watch out for dogs off of their leads. The disturbance from dogs can negatively impact feeding or roosting birds.

Haven't been here for a while and we hit it on a day when luckily enough the tide was out.We were able to reach the island but beware, if the tide has just gone out the causeway can be quite slippery. It gets better as it dries of course.Great scenery but sad to see empty beer cans and plastic bottles way out here as there are plenty of litter bins back at the well kept car park.There are also plenty of seats and picnic tables.Definitely a nice walk but only if the tide is out.

Short walk out the path at low tide and a circumference of the island.Kids enjoy it.
