The Giant’s Causeway is the highlight of the North Antrim Coast and one of the most remarkable attractions on the island of Ireland.

Planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family, the Dark Hedges form a striking natural tunnel that has grown into one of the North’s most photographed attractions. These twisted beech trees gained global fame as the Kingsroad in Game of Thrones, captivating visitors with their otherworldly beauty and eerie charm.
Tucked along the Antrim Coast, Ballintoy Harbour is a stunning stop for nature lovers and Game of Thrones fans. With its rugged coastline, weathered stone walls, and dramatic sea views, it served as the backdrop for the Iron Islands and Dragonstone. Wander the same coastal paths once walked by characters like Theon Greyjoy and Melisandre, and feel transported into the world of Westeros.
Perched high above the Antrim Coast, Magheracross Viewpoint offers breathtaking panoramic views of the cliffs, coastline, and sea. The vivid green fields roll down toward the sparkling blue waters, while distant rocky formations give the area its dramatic edge. It’s the perfect place to pause, take in the sea air, and soak up the raw natural beauty of the North’s coastline.
Dunluce Castle is one of the North’s most iconic ruins, perched dramatically on a cliff edge and dating back to the 13th century. Once a stronghold during fierce territorial battles in the 15th and 16th centuries, it now stands as a monument to the North Coast’s turbulent past. Visitors can explore the grounds, take in spectacular views, and imagine the castle in its medieval glory. It also famously featured as the seat of House Greyjoy in Game of Thrones (Pyke Castle).
Step inside the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery and experience the craft of traditional Irish whiskey-making at Bushmills. Guided by expert whiskey educators, you’ll follow the process from grain to glass – through mash tuns, copper pot stills, and ageing barrels. End your tour with a tasting in the 1608 Bar and discover the legacy of over 400 years of distilling excellence. Please note: a tasting tray is an additional cost.
White Park Bay is a peaceful haven along the Antrim Coast, where dramatic limestone cliffs meet soft golden sands and clear blue waters. Tucked between headlands, this scenic beach offers the perfect escape for those looking to unwind and enjoy nature.

Birdwatchers will find plenty to enjoy too, with various seabird species making their home along the cliffs and dunes. This quiet, unspoiled stretch of coastline is a true hidden treasure for anyone seeking beauty, solitude, and a deep connection with the natural world.
Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge is one of the North’s most exhilarating experiences, inviting visitors to cross a swaying bridge suspended 30 metres above a rocky gorge and crystal-clear waters. Originally constructed by local salmon fishermen, the bridge now offers thrill-seekers spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and rugged coastline. Whether you’re crossing for the adrenaline or the scenery, the reward is the same – breathtaking views and an unforgettable sense of adventure. A stop at Carrick-a-Rede combines natural beauty with a dash of daring, making it a highlight of any coastal journey.
