The largest and best-preserved Norman castle in Ireland dominates this pleasant seaside town on the north shore of Belfast Lough. An expansive promenade runs along the front, between the bathing beach and Marine Gardens. A marina, packed with yachts and fishing boats, now occupies the harbour, once a thriving port before the development of Belfast.
