On the 10th of August, an unusually dry, but largely grey day, the east end of Portstewart Strand resembled a sprawling endless car park. Ranks of cars and SUVs sat tightly packed together, cramed full of wetsuits, windbreaks, body boards, barbecue equipment, beach plastic and (relatively) happy families.
Just over a mile away, off the beach and up the “sand ladder” the almost deserted nature trails weaved between the dunes, the Barmouth wildlife sanctuary and the beach.
This is the venue for Northern Ireland Colour Series 5 which will give all participants full access to the best of Portstewart technical terrain and also its wildness and natural beauty. To read full details and enter online, please follow the link to the event page below:
