Harbour is a compact coastal ward in the Ards and North Down district of Northern Ireland, centred on the waterfront and marina area of nearby Bangor on the shore of Belfast Lough. It blends a busy seafront with parts of the town centre, so you find a mix of leisure boating, cafés and shops alongside pockets of residential streets and some Victorian-era buildings that reflect the area's history as a seaside destination.
Locally the ward’s character is shaped by its maritime links - yacht clubs, promenades and occasional regattas - together with a small tourism and retail economy that swells in summer. Its location close to ferry and rail connections into Belfast also makes it popular with commuters, while community life is marked by a mix of long-standing residents and newer arrivals drawn by the waterfront and easy access to green spaces and coastal walks.
