What visitors say
Whitepark Bay Beach is a beautiful two-mile stretch of golden sand backed by dunes between Ballintoy and the Giant’s Causeway. It’s one of Northern Ireland’s most scenic beaches, popular for walking, wildlife spotting, and its unspoiled natural beauty rather than swimming. It’s easily to be combined with a walk/hike from the Elephant rock.

Beautiful unspoilt beach which was almost deserted in the middle of august! There’s a small free car park at the top (coaches not allowed so you won’t get big groups coming). Quite a long walk down to the beach but the views on the way are stunning! One of the most beautiful beaches I ever have been to. Not to be missed.

Definitely one of the most photogenic Vista points I've ever stopped for. The Cliffs are very dramatic and you can see all the way to Scotland. Supposedly this was also a famous filming location for Game of Thrones.

Parking facilities good , and a nice walk down towards the beach , look out for the rabbits in the field as you approach the beach . It’s not advised that you swim in these waters so obey the rules and if you visit please remember to keep the countryside and beaches clean. It’s a beautiful walk along part of our rugged coastline no matter what the weather is like , this particular day a storm was blowing , but it was so invigorating and really gives the body a wake up call. Remember that the beaches have tidal waters so always be careful when making a visit.
