Description
Binevenagh, Magilligan peninsula , Northern Ireland
Binevenagh marks the western extent of the Antrim Plateau which formed around 60 million years ago by molten lava, inviting comparison with the more famous basalt formations at the “Giants Causeway” The steep cliffs have a vertical drop of more than 100m & the plateau extends for over 6 miles across the peninsula of Magilligan.
I always enjoy visiting here as the height gives you great views over Benone Strand, Donegal and on a clear day Scotland can be seen from up here! Nature was certainly busy to shape the land along this coast so uniquely millions of years ago
