Standing 100 feet tall, the Big Wheel in Portrush, Northern Ireland, is a giant Ferris wheel that offers breathtaking views of the coastline and surrounding countryside. With 21 fully enclosed capsules, each capable of holding up to 6 people, riders are treated to a smooth and comfortable ride as they ascend to the top for a panoramic view of the area.
This is something one should not skip. The scenery is one of the main reason to come to Portrush and this (obviously because of its great height) is a particularly good way to see it. A real birds eye view of the town and surrounding beeches. Each carriage will hold a small family. You will go around a couple of times and as it doesn't move that fast your ride will last several minutes. There is another big wheel in Portstewart also, as if one could miss it lol
Wasn't here the last time I visited but it gives great views of Portrush, I definitely recommend giving it a try.
My brother who has Down's syndrome tripped getting off this last Friday and broke his leg. Not one member of staff come to help.
