Photogenic fishing port used as a backdrop in the blockbuster "Game of Thrones" TV series.
One of the best beaches of the UK. We were stunned to see the beauty of the harbour. Free parking and clean. There is a corner where the water is still and a bit isolated from the sea. My 4-yr old enjoyed that part a lot. It's safe as no big waves to splash suddenly. You can first visit the Causeway then little right coast side you can't miss it.
Picturesque little harbour. Never enough parking space. Do try a slice of cake at the small cafe. A beautiful walk around some caves and further on to some great opportunities for photos.
Beautiful location. Easily recognisable from game of thrones as a filming location. Lovely walk along from the cottage to skull rock and elephant rock. Amazing cafe selling lovely cakes
A small bay, where scenes of Game of Thrones were filmed, quite peaceful and quiet place. There is a bar too where you can pay only cash for your drinks and foods. Road that leads down to the harbor is quite narrow drive with attention.
Absolutely stunning place to see and visit it can get very busy at weekends. The views are something else. There is a small carpark free of charge with a small cafe serving hot & cold food and drinks, also toilet facilities on site. A lovely place for a picnic and a stroll.
Ballintoy Harbour is absolutely breathtaking! Nestled along the stunning Causeway Coast, this picturesque harbour offers some of the most dramatic coastal views you can imagine. The rugged cliffs and crystal-clear waters make it a perfect spot for photography and simply soaking in the beauty of nature. We are from N Ireland and had not visited here for years. Parking is restricted and the road down is very narrow in places so bear in mind if you are driving a large vehicle or on busy days. The harbour is a great place for a leisurely stroll, and you can often see fishermen bringing in their catch or boats coming and going. The nearby beach is perfect for a picnic or just relaxing while listening to the waves. If you're a fan of the outdoors, this spot is a must-visit! It's also a great starting point for exploring the nearby Giant's Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. I highly recommend visiting at sunset for a truly magical experience. Also most will recognise from the Games of Thrones so really special.
