The Journey
Carrickfergus Castle
Step back in time at Carrickfergus Castle, a Norman stronghold that has stood guard over Belfast Lough for over 800 years. Explore its imposing walls and towers, imagining the sieges and battles it has witnessed. While entry requires a fee, capturing the castle's majestic facade against the backdrop of the lough provides a stunning photo opportunity even without entering.
Carnlough Harbour
Discover the timeless beauty of Carnlough Harbour, a picturesque Irish coastal village seemingly untouched by the modern world. Nestled along the scenic Antrim Coast Road, this charming harbor offers a glimpse into traditional Irish life. The harbor and village have been a filming location for Game of Thrones, adding to its allure.
Cushendun Caves
Explore the dramatic Cushendun Caves, carved over millennia by the relentless power of the sea. This coastal location offers breathtaking scenery and a sense of awe. The caves also feature as a filming location in Game of Thrones, adding intrigue for fans of the series.
Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge
Brave the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, a thrilling experience suspended high above the crashing waves. Cross to the tiny island of Carrickarede for unparalleled views of the rugged coastline and the turbulent waters below. This iconic landmark offers an unforgettable perspective on Northern Ireland's natural beauty, and a healthy dose of adrenaline!
The Dark Hedges
Walk beneath the enchanting canopy of the Dark Hedges, an avenue of intertwined beech trees that has become an iconic symbol of County Antrim. Immortalized as the King's Road in Game of Thrones, this natural phenomenon draws visitors from around the globe. Capture the ethereal beauty of this otherworldly location, a photographer's dream and a truly unforgettable sight.
Giant's Causeway
Marvel at the geological wonder of the Giant's Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprised of thousands of interlocking basalt columns. Legend has it that this extraordinary formation was built by the giant Finn McCool. Explore the unique landscape, climb the hexagonal stones, and immerse yourself in the myths and legends surrounding this natural masterpiece. While the visitor centre offers additional information and amenities (at an extra cost), the real magic lies in freely exploring the Causeway itself.
