Causeway Coast and Glens
Causeway Coast and Glens, Protected coastal area in County Antrim, Northern Ireland.
The Causeway Coast spans 30 kilometers along the North Antrim Coast, featuring alternating white chalk cliffs and black basalt formations.
The area received its official designation as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1988 through the Nature Conservation and Amenity Lands Order.
Nine distinct glens within the region maintain traditional Irish music sessions, storytelling events, and local craft demonstrations throughout the year.
Visitors can access the coastal paths through multiple entry points, with regular bus services connecting major sites from the town of Coleraine.
Rathlin Island, positioned within the protected area, houses Northern Ireland's largest seabird colony, including puffins, razorbills, and kittiwakes.
