Wildlife spotting on the land and in the sea
Rathlin is a wildlife spotter's paradise, and even the youngest visitors will be enthralled by the variety of species. Take a gentle stroll to the far west of the island, where an RSPB reserve offers a visitor centre and viewing platform. The area is home to Northern Island's largest variety of seabirds, which will vary depending on the season; spring and early summer is best for spotting puffins, but at any time of year expect to see gulls, auks, and other marine wildlife such as seals, porpoises, and even dolphins.

Regular ferries run from Rathlin Island to Ballycastle, taking you to the mainland in around 25 minutes.

One of the most dramatic spots is at Dunluce Castle, a ruined castle perched above the water.
