Troon is a bustling seaside town in Ayrshire, known for its two good, sandy beaches, a harbour, and a variety of good quality cafes, restaurants, and shops. The town and its vicinity are also famous for boasting no less than seven golf courses.
South Beach is a wide, flat, golden sandy beach stretching south of the harbour. The beach is backed by a wide esplanade, which offers a great place to stroll or cycle along, taking in the views over the beautiful Isle of Arran, South Bay, and Ailsa Craig in the distance.
The beach is popular with day trippers, kite flyers, kite surfers, and windsurfers. The Ayrshire Coastal Path runs alongside the beach, providing opportunities for good walks nearby. For those visiting by car, parking with toilets can be found near the Council offices on South Beach Road, and the larger South Beach Esplanade Car Park is located at the end of the B749, both leading directly onto the esplanade.
Troon South Beach is adjacent to the Ayrshire Coastal Path.
