Dunluce Castle (from Irish: Dún Libhse) is a medieval abandoned castle set on the top of a cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the Causeway Coastal Route just 2 miles east of Portrush. It is one of the most iconic monuments in Northern Ireland. It is accessible via a bridge that connects it to the mainland and is surrounded by extremely steep drops on either side. There is a huge cavern 25 metres below the Castle known as the Mermaid’s Cave. The castle doubles as the looming reaver stronghold of Pyke on the Iron Islands in TV series Game Of Thrones.
