Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge
Swaying above a churning sea channel on the Causeway Coast of County Antrim, the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge is one of Northern Ireland's most thrillingly vertiginous attractions. Originally erected by salmon fishermen to reach the tiny island of Carrickarede, it now draws visitors from around the world to make the heart-pounding crossing above crashing Atlantic waves. The surrounding coastline of basalt columns and sea stacks is breathtaking even before you take your first nervous step onto the bridge.
