Rathlin Forage

Join our local guide Ksenia on a leisurely walk across the Rathlin shoreline and rockpools while learning about the different sea life that makes Rathlin it’s home. Ksenia has, for the last sixteen years collected and cooked with the natural produce that grows along the rocky shoreline of Rathlin Island.

Our walk will consist of minor roads, grassy paths and rolling headlands. Beginning in the picturesque Church bay it is a circular walk reaching our lighthouse destination before descending back down to the harbour.

Shoreline Stories

Our guide Kevin will introduce the story of Rathlin, its history and heritage with a little of the island’s myths and legends thrown in. Learn about the Island’s birds, their sounds and hopefully we'll see seals.

Round to the Rue

Join us as we walk to the beautiful Rue point on the lower end of Rathlin, with spectacular views out over the Rathlin Sound and of the Fairhead plateau made even more famous by the HBO series Game of Thrones. Our walk will consist of minor roads and grassy trails, traversing headlands, and skirting shorelines.

Rathlin Day Tour

Rathlin Island lies just over five miles off the coast of Northern Ireland and is the largest inhabited island off Northern Ireland. Situated prominently between the seaside town of Ballycastle and the Mull of Kintyre, the island is famed for its natural beauty, its extensive history and most famously its population of puffins.
