Rugged cliff-top lighthouse on Rathlin Island offering dramatic seascapes, crashing waves, and birdlife against a minimal coastal skyline. Reachable by ferry from Ballycastle (check seasonal timetables); parking and visitor facilities are in Ballycastle. Paths on Rathlin are uneven—allow time for the crossing and a moderate walk. Best at golden hour or blue hour for warm side-light and long exposures; winter storms add drama but bring strong winds and spray. No public entry to the tower; respect
