RAF Mullaghmore was a Second World War RAF Coastal Command base in Northern Ireland. The airfield is located on the west bank of the River Bann approximately 10 km south-west of Ballymoney. It was opened in August 1942 and closed in May 1945.

It was a U.S. 8th Air Force Composite Command base until being passed to the Royal Air Force in May 1944 for use as a training establishment.

The airfield, now in private hands, is used as a microlight base. It has been known locally as Aghadowey Aerodrome.
