hello folks from ballycastle!

The bailing is half the craic - especailly if you were in the tumble drier at the white rocks this morning!!

Ads for free sometimes has one or two in it and so does that big yellow ad's paper.  Is it just a general purpose one you want

haha- wer you in the sea today?! i went down to have a nosy, plannin to do a bit of coasteerin around dunsevrick, and after looking at conditions, had a strange sense of deja vu after watchin the movie perfect storm lol.

iv done a few whitewater runs, and hav decided that- its not really my thing, i was thinkn more of paddling and campin out, i guess thats just touring, but i dont lik the idea of havin to cart about a big huge touring kayak..i reckon i prob would buy a G.P kayak, so iv the option to do river runs again...

[Michelle]

Get someone else to cart the boat about for you!!

Yeah was great craic today.  Questioned my sanity a few times and there was the "oh shite its a bit deep here" a few times when i came out.  Part of the fun

Ever go coastering about the goat path. My cousin does it all the time.  It can be raceey enough when the tide is coming in too...

if only it where that easy...

iv never even heard of the goats path- wheres that?

[Michelle]

Head to rear of ferry terminal follow path around until there is no bridge, you can climb down to go around onto next ledge then the swimming begins - don't do it without bouyancy aids and someone who as been there before.

Rathlin Island is an island off the coast of County Antrim in Northern Ireland, and is the Extreme points of the United Kingdom of the region. from the mainland, Rathlin is the only inhabited offshore island in Northern Ireland, and is the most northerly inhabited island off the Ireland coast.

It is a very highly-regarded rock-climbing location, and is believed to be the biggest expanse of climbable rock in either Ireland or Britain.

Headland of Fair Head rises 196m above the sea. Wild goats can be seen roaming among the rocks beneath the clifftops, where a walkway called The Grey Man's Path winds around the rugged coastline.
