The site itself has two car parks (side by side) allowing for parking for approximately 150 cars, with some on-road parking available too. There are onsite loos with disabled a baby changing facilities, and there is also a small shop which is open on a part-time basis and sells essentials, such as the bucket and spade! The beach itself is clean and tidy, with lots of public bins available to keep it that way! The view from the beach provides stunning views across the Atlantic Ocean!

Seapark is a hidden jewel in the North Down crown. The North Down coast is not lacking beauty spots…read morebut Seapark is right up there with the best. On a sunny the day the views over Belfast Lough are unbeatable. The park itself is a 5 minute walk from Holywood High Street and local amenities but you'd think it was a million miles away due to its tranquility. The park facilities include a huge grassy area ideal for summer BBQ's and walking dogs. There's also a refurbished play park, which is always a hit with kids. On a summers day an ice cream van will park up in Seapark and you'll be able to grab yourself a snack in between playing. Seapark is also the beginning of the National Trust North Down Coastal Path that snakes along the coast all the way to Groomsport. If you fancy a walk or cycle on a nice day then look no further than the coastal path. At every corner you'll be hit with stunning beauty and culture (Grey Point Lookout). This is a popular route for dog walkers and you'll often see friendly pooches off their leads, so if you have little ones with you keep them close especially if they are a little bit sheepish around dogs.

It's a brilliant place to take a walk to clear your head, I've done that only a few thousand times. It's great for somewhere to bring your dog (but clean up any mess, there's a number of special bins for this purpose) or come on a Sunday if you fancy a quick stroll along the sea front, though beware you'll be joining the masses. The path leads from Carrick to Whiteabbey to Hazelbank then you can follow the brilliant new cycle path all the way in to Belfast. Either follow the winding path or stroll along the sandy beaches where you'll often find some intriguing driftwood or some interesting shells. (I love doing this!) There's a new mural on the walls of the tunnels (at the exits leading to Gideons Green or to the Shore Road) that was done recently by a local artist called Michael Dunn and depicts various events and locations around the area, such as the Belfast marathon which follows this route. These tunnels used to be covered in some nasty graffiti from local kids thinking they're funny, so it's great now to see this space being used for some proper art work. Have a look at my pictures to see the mural.

If you are playing as well, visit the park, Im sure you wont go home without some rare creatures.

GoT Location - but much more than that!…read more Be sure to visit this place if you are anywhere near it. Of course, since GoT this place has gotten hugely popular. But even if you are not familiar with GoT you definitely have to see this place and its surrounding area. A small road leads you down to a parking lot right next to the harbour. A parking lot which is way too small for all the visitors. We managed to get a spot quickly anyways. Parking is free. If you don't want to take a chance, then there are some spotsjust before the village, all you need to do then is to walk down. The harbour itself is already nice and very picturesque. In the series it's the Iron Islands, where Theon comes home. There is even a plate with some information about it at the harbour. There's a small restaurant too, which was very busy. I believe they are happy that this place became so popular. The day we went - it was a sunday - there were some fishermen with their boats at the harbour. A great chance to buy some freshly caught fish for little money. We bought five fish....all it cost was 3£!! The landscape is very fascinating with interesting rock formations. But most visitors just check out the harbour, take pics and leave. Be sure to spend more time here. Just to the west there is a small cave. And a bit further a trail starts along the shore which goes on for miles. It's a fantastic walk with great views. Every step here in this amazing landscape is worth seeing and worth checking out. There are surprisingly few visitors. A good chance too to let your dog run free. Ours loved it! It's a very atmsopheric landscape full of character. We enjoyed it a lot....a lot more than the Causeway. It's still an almost untouched piece of nature. It's easy to see why the filmmakers chose this place. Definitely one of the must-sees in Northern Ireland! Wanna know more about me and my trips? Check my profile.

Nice beach - just park on it…read more This is a lovely, long and wide stretch of sand. No need to look for a parking lot, since you can park ON the beach. Some people here are fishing, some are surfing and some (like us) just enjoy the scenery. Be aware that the western side (from the car entrance) is not pet-friendly, while the eastern side is. Also from here you can get a good look at the Mussenden Temple (featured in GoT also). This beach here was a filming location for GoT - Dragonstone, where the Seven Idols of Westeros were burned. We did arrive here quite late and wished we would have had more time to enjoy this very laid-back beach. There were surprisingly few visitors that day. Not sure it's always like that though.
