Glenariff is one of nine valleys in the Glens of Antrim. These impressive glens were created by glaciers millions of years ago during the Ice Age and shaped by the tides. Glenarm, Glenariff, Glendun, Glencorp, Glenaan, Glenbllyeamon, Glenshesk, Glencloy, and Glentaisie are a scenic gem located on the coast of Northern Ireland.

For walkers, Waterfoot is a pleasant alternative to the main road, as it passes close to the beach and behind the dunes, with beautiful views and no traffic.

Nice promenade with tables and a nice walk in front of the beach. It is dangerous to swim but the view is nice.

Near Cushendall, this ruined church was built in the 13th century and the adjacent graveyard is also home to notable figures such as a doctor famous for pioneering the use of chloroform in surgery.
