Portballintrae Travel Guide

The Giant’s Causeway is one of Northern Ireland’s most iconic and most photographed beauty spots, instantly recognisable the world over. It is the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in all of Ireland, having earned this rare distinction back in 1986. Yet only through personally experiencing the many moods and overlooked facets of the wild north-east coast’s ancient volcanic bays, cliffs and beaches is it possible to appreciate their true splendour as wonders of the natural world.

Dramatically located on a steep headland that plunges straight into the sea off the North Antrim coast, Dunluce Castle is the ruined former home of the legendary MacDonnell clan.

A visit to Northern Ireland would not be complete without sampling some of the Irish whiskey produced in the country. Old Bushmills Distillery takes you back through time and lets you see first-hand how this well-known whiskey is hand-crafted and produced in small batches.

Enjoy a round of golf in Bushmills at Royal Portrush Golf Course. Stroll along the area's seaside or simply savour its top-notch restaurants.

Explore the great outdoors at Giants Causeway Visitors Centre, a lovely green space in Bushmills. Stroll along the area's seaside or simply savour its top-notch restaurants.

Why not spend a lazy afternoon at Portballintrae Beach during your trip to Bushmills? You can enjoy the bars while in the area.
