Quiet coast, rough rocky access
BT34 4AX, Kilkeel
Been here?
Kilkeel is a wild, quiet coastal spot beside the sea, with no services and the shoreline about 100 metres away. Access is difficult for low cars or vehicles without 4x4, with a damaged, rocky dirt road and limited access to the end. Recent reports mention litter around the road and beach, while fireworks and evening walkers can create occasional disturbance.

Access is a little difficult for low cars or vehicles without 4x4, but the place is definitely worth it. The site was clean and 100 meters from the sea.
A dump. It breaks your heart: rubbish on the beaches, in the water, everywhere. Impossible to reach the end of the road. Damaged road. Children set off fireworks on the port right next to it.
Spot facing the sea, making it worthwhile despite the lack of cleanliness. All kinds of waste on the path and the beach—what a shame.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of rubbish lying around. We did not stay. Beware: the navigation system took us through the harbor; this access is not always possible because of lockable gates.
New house build right beside this place.
Rocky road but Nice and quiet, and good phone signal on 3 network a bit further down. Police knocked on van at 12:30am as residents thought we were suspicious but besides that it was a good stay.
Great spot! Right on the water. You can go down the road to the right at the end of the road. It switches back along the water with a few spots along the road.
We spent the afternoon there. To access it, at the end of the road take the road on the right; it is better developed than the other road. At the bottom, it is almost flat. A few puddles.
Excellent for spending a night by the beach. Easy access. We confirm that there are many peaceful walkers.
A beautiful view, the place is quiet, and we spent the night there. It is quite windy.
