THE Gobbins cliff path finally re-opened at the weekend, following repairs which kept the multi-million pound Co Antrim attraction off-limits over Easter.
May Day holiday visitors can now enjoy the spectacular trail set into the rocks at Islandmagee.
The historic path was forced to close in December, just months after opening, following damage from landslides caused by winter storms.
"We are thrilled to welcome many new and returning visitors to this unique attraction," said Mid and East Antrim mayor Billy Ashe.
"It is fantastic to see such strong booking numbers already, with tours nearly sold out for the month of May.
"Visitors will be able to experience first-hand the changing environment and explore the amazing bird life and flora of the cliffs."
Originally designed by Irish railway engineer Berkeley Deane Wise, The Gobbins first opened in 1902 and quickly became one of the Co Antrim coastline's most famous features.
By the 1950s it had fallen into disrepair and was forced to close, with its iconic tubular bridge collapsing into the sea in 1981.
A £7.5m renovation commenced in 2013, allowing The Gobbins to re-open last August with the two-and-a-half hour tours costing £10 for adults.
It was declared unsafe just four months later, resulting in hundreds of cancelled visitor bookings.
