A view of Carrick Island which lies between Portrush and Ballycastle on the North Antrim coast. This rocky island is linked to the North Antrim mainland by the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge.

Eventually crossing the bridge became an adventurous outing for day trippers and tourists concequently the rope bridge has been upgraded to a sturdier construction than it once was.
