The name Fiddler's Green comes from an old sea shanty of that name. It is said that fishermen believe that when they die they go to their "valhalla," Fiddler's Green, "where the girls are pretty and the beer there is free, and I'll see you some day in Fiddler's Green!"

Portaferry lies at the end of the Ards Peninsula, and from here a ferry plies across "The Narrows," the site of a spectacular tidal torrent four times a day as the water sweeps in and out between the Irish Sea and Strangford Lough.

On the opposite shore is Strangford, an old scenic fishing village. Designated an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" and near several Sites of Special Scientific Interest and historical relics.
