If you walk to the end of our street towards Fingal Bay there is a really lovely walk which takes you directly to Fingal Bay beach. We do this with the kids on their scooters as it's quite flat and only about 20min (depending on how fast you go).

Family fun
A great family day out - you can feed the sharks and rays and is fun for all ages. The sharks and rays have been injured in various ways and are being rehabilitated and nursed back to health.
