Portrush West Strand

Full Description

Portrush West Strand is a lovely family beach with a long stretch of sand and views towards the harbour and the surrounding coast. It is a brilliant place for a relaxed day by the sea, especially if you want to combine beach fun with everything Portrush has nearby.

Bring buckets and spades for sandcastles, enjoy a paddle when the sea is calm and see how many shells or interesting stones the wee ones can spot. The promenade behind the beach makes it easy to enjoy a seaside walk, and there are plenty of places in town to stop for lunch or an ice cream.

The beach is great for a few hours of simple fun, or you can make more of the day with a wander around Portrush. Check the tide and weather, bring spare clothes and keep a close eye on little ones at the water’s edge.

What You'll Find

The sandy beach is perfect for digging, beach games and shoreline walks. Its location makes it easy to add food, ice cream or another Portrush adventure afterwards.
