There are many miles of unspoilt sandy beaches all around the cost of Northern Ireland.
Five of Europe's blue flag beaches can be found on the North Coast. Benone is a seven mile stretch of fine sand backed by dunes and dramatic 750 ft cliffs. The West Strand at Portrush lies adjacent to the resort flanked by a picturesque promenade whilst the East Strand runs from the town out to the White Rocks. Portstewart Strand is a beautiful two mile stretch, while Ballycastle beach nestling in the Bay of Ballycastle offers magnificent views of Fairhead and Rathlin Island.
