Tips from locals
Dunluce Castle - 30 mins by car (or 10 mins from Portrush town). Watch out for the sign as it is quite a sharp hairpin turn off the main road! As the former home of the clans McQuillan and MacDonnell, the roofless ruins are breathtaking especially at dusk, or in the sunshine with the white chalk cliffs of Portrush close by. A “Wee Cottage" is located next to the castle where you can grab a drink or a cuppa before or after your visit. Weather plays a big part in your enjoyment on the castle ruins - best save it for dry days. If you're lucky to see it on a sunny day the views of the coastline below including Whiterocks Beach and Portrush are stunning.
