Ballycastle Travel Guide

Crossing a bridge is not an obvious activity for thrill-seekers, but then Carrick-a-Rede is not like most bridges.

Explore the waterfront in Ballycastle with a trip to Ballintoy Harbour. Stroll along the area's seaside or simply savour its top-notch restaurants.

After visiting Kinbane Castle, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Ballycastle. While you're here, you can savour the lively bars.

How’s your head for heights? A narrow, swinging bridge, 20 metres long and suspended 100 feet above the rocks and sea below, links mainland Northern Ireland with a tiny outcropping of volcanic rock known as Carrick-a-Rede.

This is where Northern Ireland is at its rawest and most rugged. Venture out here for spectacular views of the Irish Sea and Scottish coastline.

Why not spend a care-free afternoon at Ballycastle Beach during your travels in Ballycastle? Stroll along the area's seaside or simply enjoy its bars.
