Bench, Ballyholme beach
Memorial bench overlooking Ballyholme beach in Bangor. Made of a solid piece of granite, the bench has the following inscription on top:
"I must go down to the sea again, for the call of the running tide
is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
and all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
and the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying."

The North Down Coastal Path at Ballyholme
The path at Ballyholme beach on the eastern side of Bangor. Here walkers can choose between a wide promenade or (at low tide) the beach. Cyclists can continue here for a few hundred metres but must leave the path at Banks Lane - it is possible (but dangerous at times) to continue on towards Groomsport, Orlock and Donaghadee via the A2 road.

Unusually high tide, Ballyholme
A very high tide at Ballyholme in Bangor, covering almost every inch of beach under several feet of water. The water has come up around the bridge Image making it impassable. Due to tidal affect and recent heavy rains the little river is also very high. There was very little wind - if the same situation had occurred during stormy weather I imagine that there would have been considerable flooding and damage.

Sign, Ballyholme Beach
One of the better by-laws passed by North Down Borough Council was to ban the launching of jet skis from beaches several years ago. This particular order seems to have been extremely successful.
Vehicles may be banned from Ballyholme Beach but the occasional motorcycle makes its way onto the sand.
