Training in Portrush

Surf, sand and links golf.

You won't find a big gym in Portrush, but you will find the sea. Troggs and Portrush Surf School run surf and paddleboard sessions, Freedive Northern Ireland teaches freediving and leads snorkel and paddleboard tours, and Alive Adventures and Portrush Yacht Club get you on the water too. Royal Portrush, the only club outside Great Britain to host The Open, and Rathmore Golf Club share the links, and YogaLoft and a Triangle Judo Club venue cover the indoor side.

Portrush parkrun is a free 5k on the sand of East Strand, and White Rocks and Curran Strand run on beyond it, backed by dunes. The station is the last stop on the branch line from Coleraine, where PureGym and the leisure centre are.
