Islandmagee is a peninsula on the east coast of County Antrim, located between the towns of Larne and Carrickfergus. It is part of the Larne Borough Council area and is a sparsely populated rural community with a long history since the mesolithic period.

As part of an agricultural crop rotation programme of old beans were grown to supply nitrogen to the soil. "Bean Eaters" became a nickname for the people of Islandmagee. The most exciting way to get to Islandmagee is to take the short ferry ride from Larne.
