Tourists cross the Carrick a Rede Rope Bridge to Carrick island, Ballycastle, in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge was first erected by salmon fishermen in 1755. The name derives from the Scottish Gaelic 'Carraig-a-Rade' meaning "The Rock in the Road" - an obstacle for the migrating salmon as they searched for the river in which they were born.
