Where should you park when visiting Whiterocks Beach?

Use the free Whiterocks Beach car park on Dunluce Road. The council provides main and overflow parking adjacent to the beach, so there is no need to park on the A2.

The practical answer

For **Whiterocks Beach**, use the dedicated **Whiterocks car park on Dunluce Road**. Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council lists free main and overflow parking adjacent to the beach.

That is the correct choice for Whiterocks itself rather than East Strand car park in central Portrush. The beaches connect along the shoreline, but their road access points are different.

On a hot summer day the car park can still become busy, so arrive earlier if you want the best chance of a space close to the beach access.

Do not leave the car on the A2 or at an unsafe verge if the parking is full; continue to a proper Portrush car park and walk a longer section instead.
