Ballintoy Harbour

About

Ballintoy Harbour, perched on the rugged Causeway Coast, offers visitors a quintessential Irish coastal experience. The tiny fishing harbour sits at the feet of a steep hill, surrounded by dramatic sea stacks, basalt cliffs and the gentle lapping waves of the Atlantic. Visitors can stroll the winding harbour road, stop at the café for iced tea or a quick bite, and enjoy panoramic views that inspired the fictional Iron Islands in HBO’s Game of Thrones. The harbour boasts free entry, well‑maintained car parking and picnic facilities, making it an ideal stop for hikers on the Causeway Coast and for those seeking a tranquil, family‑friendly beach escape.
