A once isolated island with a treacherous tidal barrier which sweeps between it and the mainland is now a mere 40 minute ferry ride. Rathlin Island is its own world with many attractions especially for those who enjoy walking journeys and bird watchers. Bull Point in mid summer is prime for bird watching having thousands of seabirds, including kittiwakes, razorbills, puffins and guillemots.
You could spend a long day’s walk on the mostly deserted roads through the areas bracing winds and later wind down in the local hostelry, and find suitable sleeping accommodations for the night.
