Overview

Easily accessible by plane or ferry, this gentle hill-covered patch of emerald across the Irish Sea packs a great deal into a small country. Enjoy blue mountains, a spectacular coastline, pretty villages and of course, the famous Irish humour.

Day 1: Antrim - Portrush

Antrim - Portrush: 44 miles (70.8 km)
Totals for day: 44 miles (70.8 km)

Antrim

The rugged Antrim coast sweeps past picture-perfect villages and sandy beaches. Visit the Giant's Causeway – legend has it, this strange landscape was created by a giant who fell in love on the Scottish island of Staffa, and built this colossal pathway to bring his beloved home to Ireland.

Must see and do:

Giant's Causeway | Antrim Castle Gardens & Arts Centre | Antrim Round Tower | Lough Neagh Discovery Centre | Cranfield Church and Holy Well

Portrush

Head west along the coast to the historic port town of Portrush. On the way, stop off at the ruin of Dunluce Castle teetering on a clifftop. Part of the castle fell away during a storm in 1639, carrying away the kitchens, the cooks and all the pots!

Must see and do:

Dunluce Castle | Ballywillan Church | White Rocks | Portballintrae Harbour
