Plenty of free parking, two children's playparks, picnic benches, information board and a viewing platform. If you wish to get a close up view of the birdlife in Dundrum Inner Bay, you will have to cross the very busy and fast road in front of the car park, so be careful.

Situated a couple of miles outside Newcastle, Co. Down. A pleasant, well-kept, grassy area with a number of large picnic tables with bench seating available in addition to a children's play area - suitable for small children. Toilet facilities are basic but better than nothing.
