There we will begin our journey to the north coast travelling through the rolling farmland of County Antrim. The Antrim Coast Road is widely agreed to be one of the finest stretches of road anywhere in the world. The road hugs the coastline giving incredible seaside views, passing unspoiled beaches, and sheltering under rugged cliffs. You may even see Scotland on a good day!

Carnlough Harbour: Our first stop of the day takes us into the picturesque fishing village of Carnlough for a quick comfort break. Series six of Game of Thrones saw Carnlough harbour feature for the first time. This harbour although built in the nineteenth century during the famine years still retains an old-world charm, which meant that it didn’t seem out of place when it first appeared in Game of Thrones.

Cushendun Cave – Storms End: This is a stunning coastal location with incredibly rugged yet beautiful geological features! What happened in these Cushendun caves took many GOT fans by surprise. These beautiful sea caves helped to create the ominous setting of one of the TV show’s most mystical and frightening scenes. Here, with Davos Seaworth watching in horror, Melisandre gives birth to the shadow baby that eventually kills Renly Baratheon.

Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge: Next stop we visit one of the most visited places in Northern Ireland, the amazing Carrick-A-Rede Rope bridge where you can cross a bridge that spans a chasm over 75ft in height.

Ballintoy Harbour – Lordsport: Ballintoy Harbour is the location for Theon Greyjoy’s return to the Iron Islands. This small coastal village is one of the most pretty and picturesque towns in Ireland. Ballintoy means “raised beach” and it was used for the exterior Pyke shots in the Game of Thrones™ TV series. 

In the presence of Balon and Yara Greyjoy and the other Ironborn, the baptism of Theon was used to reaffirm his allegiance to the God of the Sea. Ballintoy was the setting for this scene. Sadly, for Balon, this is also the set of his sea burial.

White Park Bay: A Beautiful scenic beach at the very tip of Ireland and the closest country from here would be Iceland which is 800 miles away.
