Turnberry Beach is a wide sandy beach backed by an extensive sand dune system and the renowned Ailsa Golf Course. The beach looks out over the Firth of Clyde, with picturesque views across to the mountainous Isle of Arran.
The beach is a regular venue for the Open Championship, making it a popular destination for golf enthusiasts. In addition to golf, the area is also favoured by keen walkers, with the Ayrshire Coastal Path passing the beach. Visitors can walk to the north of the beach to explore Turnberry Lighthouse, now part of the Trump Turnberry luxury hotel, which is attached to the local golf courses. The lighthouse is situated on the site of Turnberry Castle, the birthplace of Robert the Bruce.
The village of Turnberry is located at the southern end of the beach, offering parking facilities and a range of accommodation options for those looking to enjoy the local walks and golf.
Turnberry Beach is adjacent to the Ayrshire Coastal Path.
