Larne Lough

Larne Lough is a lough or inlet in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, near the town of Larne along Ireland's northeast coast. The lough is situated between Island Magee (a peninsula) and the mainland.

Larne Lough is designated as an Area of Special Scientific Interest, Special Protection Area, and Ramsar Site in order to protect the wetland environment, particularly due to the presence of certain bird species and shellfish.
