Impressive views down into the valley and a beautiful view of Dunluce Castle,

Portstewart Strand is a sweeping two-mile beach at the edge of town and forms a fitting finale (or start!) to the Causeway Coast Way. The viewpoint is from St. Patrick’s Well, a small spring long associated with local tradition.

Mountsandel Fort is a prehistoric fort dating to the Mesolithic period that was reused in the Irish Middle Ages (10th to 11th centuries). Located in Coleraine, County Derry, the fort consists of a huge grassy mound hollowed out in the middle, overlooking the River Bann. A must-see for lovers of mysterious monuments!

Great ice cream cart with coffee specialties and a large selection of toppings

The Whiterocks Cliff Path is a beautiful trail that ascends from the beach to view the cliffs. Its continuation is the Dunluce Road, which offers views of the same cliffs and the surrounding landscape, connecting with Dunluce Castle. Both sections feature beautiful white limestone cliffs (formed during the time of the dinosaurs) on the lower section and black volcanic rocks (formed when the dinosaurs became extinct) on the upper section.

Portrush National Nature Reserve is located on the Portrush headland and within the Causeway Coast Area of Natural Beauty, between Portandoo Harbour and the Blue Pool. The area has been granted a nature reserve due to its historic importance because of the fossils that you can see in the exposed rock on the seashore.
