Waterfoot or Glenariff (from Irish Gleann Airimh 'glen of arable land') is a small coastal village in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is at the foot of Glenariff, one of the Glens of Antrim, within the historic barony of Glenarm Lower and the civil parishes of Ardclinis and Layd. The village is in the townland of Warren, 16 miles (ca. 26 km) north-east of Ballymena.
