Slemish Mountain is the remnant of an extinct volcano near Ballymena on the Antrim Coast of Northern Ireland. Its summit rises to 437m, offering hikers beautiful views of the surrounding area and even the Scottish coast. Legend says that St. Patrick found God here after being enslaved as a youth and forced to herd sheep in the area. After escaping, he later returned to the area as a priest to convert his old master. Therefore, hundreds of people hike the 1.5km circular trail to the summit, especially on St. Patrick's Day (March 17). The 180m climb is rocky and steep and can be dangerous, especially in bad weather, so all hikers should be equipped for the rapidly changing weather conditions.

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.
