Tourist Guide Newcastle
Newcastle is located on the south-eastern coat of Northern Ireland. This town of approximately 7,400 inhabitants is a popular seaside resort in Northern Ireland. Its coast is along a bay, and on the other side, the highest peak in the country towers over it.
This region enjoys more sunshine than other parts of the country. There is a fair bit of rainfall, but not much of snowfall. Winters are mild with the average temperature at 7°C; while average summer temperatures are 19°C.
Though this region is believed to have been inhabited for over 5,000 years, Newcastle remained a tiny fishing hamlet for most of its early existence. It was only about 150 years ago that the town began gaining importance as a seaside resort town.
