What a beautiful, peaceful beach! The best part is walking on the sand, and the fact that cars are allowed makes it accessible for people with disabilities to enjoy the experience. Thank you to those who maintain it—keeping it clean and well-organized at all times. ❤️
Really nice beach for a dip in the ocean. For £ 8,50 you can park anywhere on the beach.
Portstewart Strand is one of the most beautiful places on the North Coast. The beach is always clean, well maintained, and perfect for a relaxing walk or a family day out. The scenery is stunning in every season, with amazing views and a peaceful atmosphere. It’s a fantastic place to unwind, and there’s plenty of space to enjoy without feeling crowded. A real gem that’s always worth visiting.
What a gorgeous beach. Peaceful and clean. There is lifeguards and safe for families to relax
Owned by the National Trust. Vehicles allowed on to the beach. Free to National Trust members, charges apply otherwise. Tractor sometimes available to recover stuck vehicles, not sure if there's a charge as I've never been stuck. Very well run & looked after. Has to be one of the best beaches in Northern Ireland, if not the UK. Clean, wide, long stretch of golden sands. Beautiful views no matter what the weather. Excellent for walking, on the beach or through the dunes to the river Bann. Scenery is spectacular either side or through the dunes. Good for swimming, surfing, body boarding (depending on the weather conditions). Further down the beach there is a section for jet skis etc. Dog friendly, section further along the beach for off lead gallops. Great restaurant/bar, Harry's Shack, at the start of the beach with indoor & outdoor seating available. Beach can be exceptionally busy on sunny days. Well worth a visit.
