Giant’s Causeway

Located approximately 60 miles north of Belfast, in County Antrim, the striking landscape of the UNESCO-listed Giant’s Causeway makes it a popular trip. The area consists of around 40,000 interlocking basalt columns resulting from an ancient volcanic fissure eruption. The hexagonal columns are washed by the swirling ocean waters and are associated with local legends and myths. As you step across the columns and follow clifftop paths, you will see the famous landmarks, the Giant’s Boot, Camel’s Back and Wishing Chair. To reach the causeway, catch a train to Coleraine, followed by a local bus. Arrive there easily when you take advantage of Loganair’s flight deals to Belfast.
