Lovely walk song beach to Ballintoy Harbour

Car parking is free, although not lots of spaces and so cars parked on approach road. The walk down to beach is relatively steep although there is a choice of steps for part of the walk or step free path. Beach is large and pretty with not many other people. Cows were on beach when we visited. We decided to walk along beach and round headland to Ballintoy Harbour (as we had previously tried to park at Ballintoy Harbour car park and failed to find a space). Beach walk was easy, although getting round rocks at headland was challenging. You need good balance/footwear and also go when it's not high tide. Once round the Headland and off rocks the pathway continues round to Ballintoy Harbour. Overall a lovely walk, very pretty scenery. Just be careful on the rocks.

    A beach like no other
    To me this beach is truly amazing and one that I go back to over and over again, whilst I've travelled to other countries and seen many other beaches, I still list White Park Bay as my favourite beach. The car parking is good and then it is a short stroll down a lane which is very easy to follow and whilst you can see the beach from the top and catch the odd glimpse or two on the way down, when you turn left at the bottom of the lane you realise the beauty of White Park Bay. Any time I drive along the coastal road I am sure to stop and make a visit, it is rarely very busy and offers a peace and tranquility that is indescribable unless you visit, when you visit then you know. Enjoy when you do go!

    Beautiful beach
    We found this beach on our coastal walk, accessing it via rocks which was fairly challenging. A beautiful sand beach bay and gently sloping sea, perfect for all age groups. When we visited there were not many people there, so plenty of space to enjoy. Didn’t see any facilities on the beach but a lifeguard was in attendance.
