Causeway Coast
Located in County Antrim on the north, the Giant’s Causeway is one of the most popular attractions in Northern Ireland. It contains approximately 40,000 interlocking basalt columns that were there result of an ancient volcanic eruption. Many of the columns are a hexagonal shape and some are as tall as 12 meters, making the Causeway a unique place to visit and marvel at its natural beauty.
