Full Description
Warrenpoint is one of those places where a simple walk along the seafront can turn into a lovely little outing. The promenade looks across Carlingford Lough towards the mountains, with plenty to watch on the water. If the wee ones need more than a walk, the nearby municipal park has a play area and paths to explore. It is easy to make a morning or afternoon of it with a picnic, a stop for an ice cream and some time watching the boats.
There is something lovely about watching the ferries, boats and changing light across Carlingford Lough, with the Cooley Mountains in the distance. The seafront makes a great place for a gentle stroll with little ones, and Warrenpoint Municipal Park is close by if they need a playground break. Bring a ball for the park, stop for an ice cream or sit for a while and enjoy the view. You do not need to plan much to make this a nice family afternoon.
What You'll Find
The seafront features a promenade walk, a play park, Warrenpoint Municipal Park (W.P. Anderson Park) with walking track and story walk, picnic tables, benches, and views across Carlingford Lough. There are cafés, restaurants and shops along the seafront.
