Ireland - The Emerald Island
Explore all of Northern Ireland and never be bored:
Must See spots of Northern Ireland Include:
- Belfast -Northern Ireland’s first city, Belfast, is known for a lot of things: it was the birthplace of legendary ocean liner Titanic; it’s got great music humming through its veins; it’s currently one of Europe’s hottest food destinations.
- Derry~Londonderry – the walled city
Nestled along Ireland’s scenic north coast, where the Wild Atlantic Way meets the Causeway Coastal Route, the ancient city of Derry~Londonderry has something for everyone. - Causeway Coastal Route – One of the best coastal drives in the world, (according to Condé Nast Traveler). The Causeway Coastal Route stretches from Belfast to Derry~Londonderry and brings you past breathtaking scenery and unforgettable experiences. Including the Gobbins Cliff Path, the rugged edges of the County Antrim coast, the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge that links the mainland with tiny, craggy Carrick Island or the Giant’s Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage site consisting of 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns tumbling into the ocean.
I think the Ireland.com sums it up best:
- 17 counties
- 5000 years of history
- 100s of festivals
- 100,000 storytellers*
And the secrets are everywhere.
Every cairn has a story, every castle turret has a tale, every hill may hide heroic sagas.
Ask the people you meet and you will hear them tell of the legends, triumph and sometimes tragedy that whirl around its round towers, opulent mansions and prehistoric monuments.
And when, of course, you’ve introduced yourself properly, you’ll have stories of your own – of the people you’ve met, of the craic you’ve had and of the memories you’ll cherish for ever.
From the wind-whipped tip of Malin Head to the safe haven of Kinsale Harbour, wrap yourself in the wilderness of the west coast of Ireland on the world’s longest defined coastal touring route.
The Wild Atlantic Way is a sensational journey of soaring cliffs, buzzing towns, hidden beaches and epic bays. So whether you drive it from end-to-end, or dip into it as the mood strikes, it’s going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
