Editor's Notes
Portstewart Strand is a two-mile sweep of golden sand on the Causeway Coast, backed by one of the finest dune systems in Northern Ireland. Managed by the National Trust, it keeps the old tradition of driving onto the firm sand, with the bar mouth of the River Bann at its far end.
A drive-on (fee) beach operated by the National Trust.
