If you’re looking for a fun, free, and educational day out on the Causeway Coast, the Portrush Coastal Zone is well worth a visit.

The Coastal Zone is packed with interactive displays that bring the marine world to life. Children can learn about the creatures that live in our seas, from tiny shore crabs to larger marine animals found along the Causeway Coast.

The centre makes learning fun, with hands-on exhibits that encourage young visitors to explore, ask questions, and discover more about the environment around them.

One of the highlights of any visit is the stunning view from the centre. Looking out across the Atlantic Ocean, visitors can enjoy breathtaking scenery and keep an eye out for local wildlife. If you’re lucky, you might spot seals swimming offshore on the viewing platform.

Families can learn about fossils, geology, and the natural forces that have helped create the coastline we enjoy today.

A visit to the Coastal Zone fits perfectly into a day out in Portrush. After exploring the centre, families can enjoy a walk along the harbour, spend time on the beach, grab an ice cream, or take in the beautiful coastal views.
