Tips from the Community

Matto
November 13, 2024, Mountsandel Fort

Mountsandel Fort is a prehistoric fort dating to the Mesolithic period that was reused in the Irish Middle Ages (10th to 11th centuries). Located in Coleraine, County Derry, the fort consists of a huge grassy mound hollowed out in the middle, overlooking the River Bann. A must-see for lovers of mysterious monuments!

Portrush National Nature Reserve is located on the Portrush headland and within the Causeway Coast Area of Natural Beauty, between Portandoo Harbour and the Blue Pool. The area has been granted a nature reserve due to its historic importance because of the fossils that you can see in the exposed rock on the seashore.

East Strand Beach is famous for its beautiful golden sands, extensive dune systems, and wonderful views over The Skerries and Causeway headlands. From this point, you can access the beach from the footpath. Chuck your shoes in your bag and enjoy some barefoot walking along the sand, or pull up a picnic blanket and enjoy the views.

Nothing spectacular, but allows a nice roundwalk.

Really cool place for the evening - just wait for the sun to set quietly behind the harbour and head for dinner in one of the restaurants close by afterwards (no worry in choosing, menu is almost identical in all of them).

You can walk along a well defined forest path from the small car park near Coleraine Courthouse and from the Fort, you can see great views of the Salmon Leap (Weir) and Coleraine.
