Dunluce Castle is a stunning medieval ruin perched dramatically on the edge of a basalt cliff on the Antrim Coast in Northern Ireland, near the town of Portrush. Built in the 13th century by the McQuillan family and later seized by the MacDonnell clan, this historic fortress offers a glimpse into the turbulent history of the region. The castle's precarious position, overlooking the North Atlantic Ocean, adds to its mystique and allure. Visitors can explore the remnants of the structure, including the gatehouse, towers, and remnants of the great hall, while enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding coastline.
