Super weekend walk

Very nice place for a guided hike.

About the closest to a via ferrata you will find in Ireland. Slightly adventurous path for those not used to it at all, but from a sportive perspective rather boring for mountaineers. The landscape and views are great though and still worth it. Downside is that you need to go for a guided tour here.

Browns Bay Beach is a popular sandy, safe beach at the northern tip of Islandmagee, nestling between Skenaghan Point and Barrs Point in a horse shoe shaped bay. It is 600m long with rocks and loose boulders around the edge. Access is via a set of steps at one end and a gentle ramp at the other. The view across the horizon is beautiful showing five headlands all the way up the Antrim coast. This beach is popular for swimming. A sizeable car park is on the other side of the road. There is a wide grassy area that is suitable for wheelchairs. There are also public toilets onsite and at Ballylumford Harbour. Skenaghan point, on the east of the bay, is a National Trust property and features a short walking route past the “rocking stone”. Looking to the north one gets a clear view of the “Maidens rocks” far out in the North Channel, and their two lighthouses, only one of which is now in operation.

Modern visitor center, very well maintained. Large car park outside, cafe and toilets inside as well as information center.

The guides open and close the entrance with a thick steel chain. You can't get in here without a guide. Visitor groups are strictly limited to 15 people per tour.

Recreated from the original, The Tubular Bridge is a 5.4 tonne tube that hangs approximately 10m above the freezing Irish Sea.

Just 20 miles from Belfast, this coastal path meanders along the basalt cliffs just above the Irish Sea and was originally built over 100 years ago. However, the path was closed in 1954 after the long-term effects of the economic crisis of the 1930s and the lack of material after World War II made the operation of this unique tourist attraction impossible. Now the Coastal Path has undergone a major refurbishment and is one of the most popular attractions on the Causeway Coastal Route.
