GIANTS CAUSEWAY
- This is the most popular tourist attraction in Ireland
for obvious reasons. Created over 60 million years ago after intense
volcanic activity, the Giants Causeway has been shrouded in myths
and legend from pre-history. Designated as a World Heritage Site,
you can enjoy spectacular views of the North Antrim Coast and
Scotland on a clear day. The Giants Causeway is an unmissable
attraction when visiting our island.

CARRICK-A-REDE ROPE BRIDGE - Spanning a chasm 80 feet
deep, this seasonal bridge is used mainly by local salmon fishermen
to reach their nets on a small island just off-shore. The bridge
is now a popular tourist attraction, with the brave visitors crossing
the bridge leaving the not so brave behind... The trail to the
bridge gives unbelievable views of the Antrim Coast along with
Sheep Island, Rathlin Island and also Scotland.

BUSHMILLS WHISKEY DISTILLERY - You can also visit
the oldest licensed whiskey distillery in the world in the small
village of Bushmills. Here you can ramble throughout the distillery
and take one of the excellent guided tours. See how the whiskey
is made from local water and learn how it became known as 'The
Water of Life'. No visit would be complete without the obligatory
tasting session after the tour and of course you can peruse the
Gift Shop for souvenirs or a little something for yourself.
