one of the better beaches down the Clyde coast - and only 5 mins from Troon station with frequent fast trains, 30 mins from Glesca. carry on round the prom (nice old houses) to the peculiar headland (great viewpoint for Arran) and find The Wee Hurrie - best chippie ever - or McCallum's Oyster Bar (see review) by the harbour
Fantastic beach and surroundings lovely for a nice walk into Troon from the Marine Hotel about a mile walk into the center , Just nice especially on a nice day ,
Troon beach is right next to the sea which is very handy.It's also next to the promenade so the overall combination makes sense.
Love a walk on Troon beach. Nice clean area.Plenty of shops etc nearby. Good day out.A favourite spot.
beautiful clean sands, lots of people enjoying the beach, lovely dunes. It was a winter's day and the beach was full of people of all ages just enjoying the walk and the sea air. Its also near the town centre - handy for a coffee
Troon beach has huge potential but I'm afraid to say was littered with every type of rubbish you can imagine. Maybe the council keep it clean over the summer??? Beaches abroad are cleaned nightly. Maybe weekly wouldn't be too much to ask??
Great place to have a walk and blow the cobwebs away. I would recommend a visit in summer as the beach is cleaner but it's great at all times of the year.
Lovely clean beach, great town, great for the kids! Take hats and gloves!!!Very peaceful to take some time out!!
The sandy bay stretches for some distance. On our visit, the sand/beach area was unfortunatly covered with driftwood, storm leftovers and looked a bit grubby. I guess the local authority will carry out a beach spring clean ( unless the current asteritity cut backs prevents). Car parking on grass areas which can have standing water and be muddy after a period of wet weather. Flat walking and some very nice views. A short walk back into the town centre for some food nd drinks. In tge summer, car ferries leave here for Northern Island. Lots of hotels and guest houses but no major hotel brand name. The Troon Golf Hotel and the Piersland woukd be good choices.
It was february so wind blasting across.would be different in summer. the main purpose is golfing. Lovely sandy beaches very near by
