20 Famous Game of Thrones Filming Spots You Can Visit

Hidden along County Antrim’s coastline, Cushendun Caves became the setting for one of the series’ most unsettling scenes, when Melisandre gave birth to the shadow assassin. Nature spent roughly 400 million years carving these sea caves into the cliffs through erosion, creating one of Northern Ireland’s most striking coastal landmarks. The caves sit just outside the village of Cushendun, making them an easy stop while exploring the Causeway Coastal Route. Unlike many Game of Thrones filming locations, they are completely free to visit and remain open year-round. Just keep in mind that calm weather and low tide usually make exploring them much easier.
