This is a lovely day trip, drive along the coast from Newcastle, via Annalong Kilkeel to Greencastle, explore the ancient castle.
Get the Ferry to Greenore, hopefully spot Finn the resident Dolphin.
Have a leisurely afternoon in Carlingford, get some lunch, walk along the greenway before driving home via Newry.
