Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland packs in the attractions with a rich cultural heritage, striking scenery and a sweep of stunning coastline

Northern Ireland's beauty is intertwined with tragic history, rich culture and the renowned friendliness of its people.
 
The wild craggy mountains, splendid lakes and sweeping coastline make it an ideal playground for watersports enthusiasts, walkers, cyclists, hikers, rock climbers and sailors.
 
But there are lots of things to keep those after a dose of culture enthralled, too. From boisterous oyster festivals to authentic horse fairs, and from ancient castles to elegant country houses, this spectacular part of Ireland is packed with things to do. 

The six counties of Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh, Londonderry and Tyrone and two major cities, the capital Belfast and Londonderry City are just waiting to be explored.
