The Jet Centre alone covers bowling, soft play and mini golf, and Bounce Coleraine is the area's big trampoline park. On rainy days, four soft play venues means younger children are well catered for.
Get outdoors and you have two free cycling routes — the Lower Bann Cycleway and the Causeway Gateway. North Coast Alpacas is a real change of pace, and Coleraine Museum and Flowerfield Arts Centre are both free if you want to slow it down.
