Such a fantastic beach when the tide is out.. and lovely little holiday cottages 🦀⛱️
It was 1°C when we filmed this and some hearty ladies were in swimming, full respect to them for their bravery lol. Beautiful beach and whilst there's not much in the town, save a Eurospar, Ballyhalbert is perfectly situated to many other places to visit. Thanks.
My Granda had a caravan there on the airfield and I visited it many times! This was a lovely video, Cuz
It's a shame they never kept a small museum there celebrating this part of history. I remember they used to have a Spitfire on display at Cultra Ulster Folk & Transport museum they could have easily placed it here. Thanks glad you liked the vid.
I spent many a happy summer in Ballyhalbert (as a kid). My mum and dad owned a caravan there.
@@bpfromowc It may have changed over the years but it's charm still remains. Thanks for sharing precious memories
Wow, I want to live here!! 😍😍 Amazing place!! It reminds me a little of Anglesey, where I live. Great video and the drone footage adds another, very interesting perspective. Love the history and the music / song at the end.
Thank you so much! Yes living on the coastline of the Ards Peninsular would definitely resemble much of Anglesey
On my recent house hunting trip I did think the parts I saw of NI were very similar to North Wales , geographically speaking. I spent most of my time around the Limavady and BallyKelly areas.
