Walk to the West
WALK TO THE WEST
Saturday 2 July
11.00am to 3.30pm
Rathlin Island. Meet at the bus shelter at Rathlin harbour
Rathlin Island is just six miles off the coast of Northern Ireland but a short ferry crossing will transport you to another world.
Join RSPB warden and islander Liam McFaul to walk and explore the four-mile route from Church Bay to the Rathlin West Light Seabird Centre where our friendly team of staff and volunteers will be ready to greet you.
You’ll be amazed by the sight, sound (and smell!) of thousands of seabirds and will also have a chance to explore the lighthouse and learn about the people and other wildlife which make their homes here.
PRICE: £13 for adults/£6 for RSPB members. Children aged 5-16 £6/£3. Under 5s £3. *All prices include admission to the Rathlin West Light Seabird Centre and return bus journey to the harbour.
