Are you ready for a harbour-hopping adventure through Northern Ireland’s vibrant fishing industry?

This question is answered when you begin exploring the rich, vibrant fishing heritage of Northern Ireland! A diverse, delicious array of sustainable seafood is harvested around our coastline every day. However, a large proportion of this amazing produce is currently exported to other countries meaning that our local seafood industry is often misunderstood and undervalued.

The Northern Ireland Seafood Trails have been created to tell the story of our fishing industry and reconnect people with the seafood that’s caught on their coastline.

Fish and shellfish are high in protein, low in fat, and packed with important vitamins and Omega-3. Not only is seafood a really healthy option for your family, it’s also unbelievably easy to cook a delicious, mouth-watering meal in no time at all - now that’s a secret we just can’t keep!

Explore the Trails to find out where you can buy, try, and learn about local seafood with your family!

The trails are colour-coded for food, fishing industry, fun activities, nature, and fishmongers. Whilst every trail features a great variety of stops, each trail has its own point of difference. For example, some of the trails are perfect for the nature-lovers who want an adventure, whilst others are great for foodies on the hunt for delicious seafood! Use the key at the bottom of each map to find the trail that’s right for you and your family.
