Lecale Coast AONB

It is located between Strangford Lough and the Mourne Mountains and has a low, sometimes sandy, rocky or grassy shoreline. Its southern tip lies along an extensive sand dune system at Dundrum Bay. Stretching from Dundrum Bay to Strangford village, the coastline is a place of delightful coves, dramatic headlands and secluded sandy beaches.

It was originally designated an AONB in 1967, covering an area of 31.08 km².^[1] It was merged with the Strangford Lough AONB in 2010 to form the new Strangford and Lecale AONB.^[2]
