The sea has created ingenious rock shapes.
Of course you should have a little imagination to discover certain forms of life in these formations, but it's fun.

If this stone formation truly is Fionn Mac Cumhaill's (Finn MacCool's) shoe, he had terrible taste in footwear. A must-see on any visit to Giant's Causeway, this rock is an odd landmark in an area dominated by odd landmarks.

To the Causeway you pass the visitor center on the right. You only have to pay if you want audio guide, bus transfer, etc.
