Portrush, Northern Island

We enjoyed our two days in Derry, and with the now familiar cool wind and grey skies, we were off. Our destination, Northern Irelands most popular tourist spot, The Giants’s Causeway. It is a short drive along the coast from Portrush, our home for the night.

A popular destination, but very well done by the National Trust. After spending a few hours there, we motored back to Portrush for a look, then check into our hotel, the ”Golf Links”.

Portrush is surrounded by very nice, sandy beaches, and has a ”holiday town” feel to it. However at 15 degrees, not really summery weather.

Opposite our hotel is the Royal Portrush Golf Club. The Open Championship was played here in 2019, with Irishman Shane Lowry winning. The 2011 Open Champion Darren Clarke is a Honorary Member.
