Essential cliff face maintenance works are to take place at Blackhead Path, Whitehead.

Please be advised that a section of the main Blackhead Path will be partially closed from Monday 26 October for a period of approximately one week to facilitate essential maintenance works.

🚧 The closure is necessary to ensure the safety of path users while these works are being completed.

✅ A section of the path will remain open and access will be maintained where it is safe to do so.

From DBreenPhotography, a great film of how the hooded crows on the path deal with shelled seafood.

Mid and East Antrim Borough Council this has been raised . Can you assist. Thanks

Is there anyone can be contacted…. there are two metal rods protruding from the ground on the seaside of the descent down from lighthouse on the cliff path.
These are a real trip hazard and it would take a battery operated angle grinder to cut them down to path level.
A trip so close to the edge could lead to a fatal accident.
Thank you

This Saturday, at the far end of the Island, the council say, "Good Afternoon

Please find information below for the Brown’s Bay Beach Clean, this Saturday 19th September, with Marine Conservation Society.

You are welcome to join in at our annual beach clean at Browns Bay on Saturday 19th September 2026 starting at 10:30, which will end at 12:00hrs.

We will be completing a survey of litter on the beach, for which I will be supplying the survey form, clipboards and pencils.

I am hoping for dry and sunny weather, but we know this may not be the case, so please bring waterproof clothing and footwear and bear in mind that there are rocks on the beach and can be slippery (grassy areas may be too).

If you are bringing any children volunteers (i.e. Under 18 years old) you need to complete a Parental Consent Form for each child and ensure your children are supervised. Please find it attached but you can complete it at the start of the beach clean.

If the weather is kind, we also plan to go for a sea swim afterwards 🙂.

I really look forward to meeting you and thank you again for volunteering on this very worthwhile cause. If you have any issues in finding the place or other problems, you can text or ring me on 07752422616.

I look forward to meeting you on Saturday!"

Great opportunity to participate in our annual volunteer beach clean event at this beautiful beach. We will clean the full stretch of the beach and if weather permits, some of us will go for a swim. Bring along your friends, family members or your pets.
