POV of a Northern Ireland Coastal Gem (and I'd never even heard of it!) Welcome to The Gobbins...

During my dash around the UK capitals, I had a bit of time in Belfast so ended up booking a last-minute guided walk out on the Antrim coast. And boy am I glad I made the effort. Due to me trying to stay on my feet, I decided to film this as a 'point of view' style video. I hope it'll give you a good idea of what's involved if it's something you're considering yourself. And if you're not, well, enjoy it anyway, it's a beautiful path!
I toured The Gobbins on 30th March 2023

Hi, I’m Steve, a travel reviewer from Scotland. Join me on my adventures as I discover my own country, often visiting places for the first time, so hopefully it's as much of an eye-opener for you as it is for me! Don't expect expert opinion, just a very honest journey of discovery. Sometimes featuring my intrepid sidekick Alicja, sometimes featuring adventures beyond the borders of Scotland. Enjoy!

Brilliant video Steve. The Gobbins path was constructed as a tourist attraction over 100 years ago before falling into disrepair. I can remember going down to it in the 70's when we stayed at a rented cottage that my grandparents had a few miles away, but you could only go a little way on it. We spent all summer down on Islandmagee and it was the best place to be a kid. Theres a walk from Whitehead station along the seafront to the lighthouse that is a lovely walk too and not that far from the Gobbins. One thing you didnt seem to do was go into the Rinkha and have an ice cream which is a home made recipe and imo the best ice cream going...but im biased lol

Most of our trips to NI we use public transit and (knock wood!) have found it clean and efficient. We haven't done the Belfast to the Causeway train journey yet which is supposed to be gorgeous.

The POV style meant less gabbin and more Gobbin... Brilliant video Steve. If you ever venture westward, The Marble Arch Caves in Fermanagh might be of interest to you. You could combine it with Cuilcagh Mountain Boardwalk Trail also nicknamed the Stairway to Heaven Walk. Both of these are must does for visitors to Fermanagh. Might be van job though, public transport is limited "west of the Bann"

@@barvdw There are hourly buses from the international airport and I'm pretty sure it's the same from the city, I think it's Ulsterbus number 261. Either would be less than 2 hours travel time. Belmore court motel in Enniskillen would be a budget friendly base, don't be fooled by the name, I've stayed in worse hotels for 3 times the price. The owner Terry will be extremely welcoming. If you're set on a hotel, the Manor house or Killhevlin. Plenty of Airbnb options too. Plenty to keep you busy around the county town. Couple of beautiful national trust houses, Florencecourt, Castlecoole and Castle Archdale. Enniskillen castle, Devenish Island and a pint of G in the beautiful Victorian era pub, Blakes of the hollow.

Exactly a year ago today I got home from a visit to Scotland and flew home from Aberdeen. Since then I have watched your channel for more vicarious enjoyment of the Scottish breakfast, baked beans from a Heinz can notwithstanding, which I fear would shorten my heretofore unremarkable life. So I think the Scottish Breakfast is best enjoyed when I can watch you taking one for the Team! At the 4:30 mark of this one, I almost got heart palpitations in the expectation I would also experience if there was such a thing as an 'Irish Breakfast'. As I paused the video to pen this comment, I shall now carry on, enjoying it whatever may come. More breakfast cameo's please!

Hair raising journey over the rugged coast - certainly not everybody's cup of tea what with the rough path and irregular steps . Congrats on completing an arduous trek .

I would have to think about this path. It looks "ify" in some spots and you definitely have to be sure footed. The coastline was beautiful however I would be concentrating on the path I would miss alot. Safe trip.

Nice one Steve, you did well to find it, we did that last year and plenty of locals didn't know where it was, we also did the "Carrick o Reed" rope bridge, with your head for heights, that would be a challenge.
