Welcome to Portrush

Portrush (Port Rois) is a seaside resort town in County Antrim, on the County Derry border. The main part of the old town, including the railway station as well as most hotels, restaurants and bars, is built on a mile–long peninsula, Ramore Head, pointing north-northwest.

The town is well known for its three sandy beaches, The West Strand, East Strand and White Rocks, as well as the Royal Portrush Golf Club, the only golf club outside of Great Britain which has hosted The Open Championship.
