A peaceful coastal village with whitewashed cottages and dramatic sea caves, Cushendun feels like a step back in time on the Causeway Coast.

“Tiny Coastal Village with Big Screen Appeal”
by Steve – June 2025

Cushendun is small but undeniably charming, with whitewashed cottages, a peaceful beach, and a dramatic cave featured in Game of Thrones. There's not a huge amount to do, but that's part of the appeal - it's quiet, photogenic and feels like a step back in time.
