Season: autumn
Brown’s Bay sits at the top of County Antrim’s Islandmagee Peninsula. It is the more easterly of two adjacent crescent-shaped, sandy beaches. The stream that crosses the beach is popular with dam-building adults and children alike and the bathing water is clean. Regular beach cleans further complement the unspoilt ambiance here. Access is good via steps or a slipway and the car park is nearby. In the distance to the north is Scotland’s Mull of Kintyre, with Stranraer almost within touching distance to the east. This is a peaceful, secluded spot.
