Giant's Causeway

The Jewel in the Crown of the Antrim Coast Explore the majesty and mystery of Giant’s Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will journey inland, through Ballymena and Bushmills, to the dramatic North Antrim Coast. Here, You will discover an aggregation of approximately 40,000 interlocking basalt columns—the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. For millions of years, the unique rock formations of Giant’s Causeway have stood as a natural rampart against the unbridled ferocity of Atlantic storms. The rugged symmetry of the columns both intrigues and inspires. You may be astonished by this ancient natural marvel as you scan the mysterious stones for structures that resemble objects, such as the Organ, Giant's Boot, Camel's Hump and Chimney Stacks. Returning to port, You will stop for photographs at the magnificent clifftop Dunluce Castle, and, time permitting, at the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge that spans a chasm 80 feet deep. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
