A salt wind pushes across the basalt plates as your guide steers the van up the North Antrim Coast, the road cutting between cliff and sea. The first stop drops you at a ribbon of hexagonal columns—the Giants Causeway—where stone fingers step into the surf and the ocean dares you to count the rings of a myth that lives in the rock.
