Easy to book and get on board. The staff were knowledgeable and funny lightening the mood with the jokes etc. only issue were the wet seats on the upper deck so we got wet rears! But overall a great experience.

Helens Bay Beach

Helen's Bay Beach is one of the two top-notch beaches situated in Crawfordsburn Country Park. These stunning sandy beaches are highly regarded within the Belfast area, attracting many visitors during the summer months. It is highly favoured by visitors due to its gentle slope and excellent water quality, making it perfect for swimming. The beach is beautifully complemented by the country park, which features wooded headlands, meadows, scenic walks, and convenient facilities. With its clean waters and gradual sandy incline, Helen's Bay Beach is a popular choice for summer bathing. However, it is worth noting that the beach can get quite crowded during peak times, given its reputation as one of the area's finest.

Lisburn & Hillsborough

Only a short 20-minute drive from Belfast City lies the charming city of Lisburn, where a plethora of activities await you. With its rich history as a prominent textile producer in Ireland, many of the buildings in Lisburn date back to the 18th century.

You can explore the small towns located along the lake's coast or even visit one of the many islands to learn some history and marvel at the wildlife. Two islands you can explore include Coney Island and Ram Island. Ram Island, you can marvel at the ancient round tower, while on Coney Island, you can discover the intriguing history of the Normans' westernmost outpost.

Glenariff, known as the Queen of the Glens, is one of the nine Antrim Glens located in Northern Ireland. Spanning over 1,000 hectares, Glenariff Forest Park offers a diverse landscape of planted woodland, lakes, outdoor recreation areas, and conservation zones. To immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Antrim, make sure to explore the vast expanse of Glenariff Forest Park. This woodland, situated in the Glens of Antrim, boasts tranquil lakes, a picturesque waterfall, picnic spots, and scenic walking trails adorned with lush ferns and mosses along the river's rocky gorges. The park offers several walking options, including the 1km Viewpoint Trail and the 3km Waterfall Walk Trail. The latter leads you to a stunning tiered waterfall, particularly awe-inspiring after heavy rainfall. Located just 50 minutes northwest of Belfast City along the coast, the park is easily accessible for nature enthusiasts seeking an escape.

The resort town of Portrush is a popular spot for those looking to visit beautiful blue flag beaches making this coastal town a perfect summer destination. Portrush sits on a mile-long peninsula with two beaches on either side. West Strand is great for those looking to enjoy a relaxing swim or to work on their suntan, while East Strand tends to be popular with thrill seekers who enjoy water sports such as surfing.

Portstewart

Portstewart is a charming coastal town located next to Portrush. It boasts a picturesque harbour and stunning coastal paths that make up the Atlantic promenade. This promenade leads to the popular Portstewart Strand, a two-mile beach that attracts both holidaymakers in the summer and surfers all year round. The sand dunes at this beach even served as a backdrop for a scene in Game of Thrones, where Jaime Lannister and Bronn fought Dornish guards. The town's seafront promenade, shaped like a crescent, is protected by rocky headlands, creating a peaceful and sheltered atmosphere. In May, the town comes alive with the North West 200 motorcycle race, which passes through Portstewart. The starting grid and pit area are located on the coastal road between Portrush and Portstewart.

PSNI traffic advice for Irish open:

The Police Service of Northern Ireland along with DP World Tour – organisers of this year’s Amgen Irish Open at Royal County Down, the Department for Infrastructure, Translink and Newry Mourne and Down Council, together with other partners - have developed a traffic management plan to facilitate the large numbers of people expected to attend the Irish Open.

Amgen Irish Open Championship Director Paul Gillmon, from the DP World Tour, said: “We encourage everybody travelling to the Amgen Irish Open to pay attention to the on-road signage as the information is being updated on a regular basis and will greatly assist their journeys to Royal County Down.

“We are grateful to the Police Service of Northern Ireland for their support and would ask motorists to follow their instructions to ensure a smooth process for all.”

Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson said: “Local officers, supported by specialist colleagues have been working alongside a range of partners over the past number of months to prepare for this event.

"We will have police officers on duty across the district working to keep visitors, participants and the local community safe, while keeping the traffic flowing.

“With a large number of visitors expected throughout the week, there may well be traffic congestion at times, so we are appealing for everyone to plan for delays, allow for extra time for their journeys, and to listen out for traffic reports on local radio and follow social media as the traffic management plan will be constantly reviewed and updated as circumstances change and develop. Visitors should only use the designated park and ride facilities as directed.”

Also discussing the travel arrangements, Newry, Mourne and Down District Council Chairperson, Councillor Pete Byrne said: “Newry, Mourne and Down District Council has consulted with local residents and stakeholders to minimise traffic disruption and delays to both visitors and local residents.

“Newcastle is open for business with an exciting Fringe Events Programme to coincide with the tournament. As you plan your journey to Newcastle you can keep up to date with parking and event information on our website and social media channels.”

Reminding the public about the traffic arrangements, Colin Sykes Director of Road Asset Maintenance at the Department for Infrastructure said: “Drivers should expect traffic congestion on main roads in the Newcastle area especially at either end of each day’s competition.

“I would urge all drivers to properly plan their journeys and to play their part to contribute to a safe environment for all road users. This will also help accommodate the needs of local residents, schools and commerce going about their daily business.

“Drivers are asked to be mindful that additional temporary parking restrictions will be in place to help traffic flow and any necessary access for the emergency services around the Newcastle area. Up to date travel information will be available on the Trafficwatch website and on X/Twitter @TrafficWatchNI

“With the co-operation of all road users, we can look forward to contributing to a successful event with safe access for everyone.”
