Access is no problem ,theres a bridge under the railway line just at the first stream were all the cars are parked ,theres also a carpark beside the houses in case theres a good surf running so you've not far to walk ,i should have a few more photos of the area ,i'll see if i can stick up another one .

jd, you will see from rn's pick, the entrance is just above the stream running across the beach, its a case of turning in right at the bottom once you have gone downhill on the main coleraine to benone road.

there are decent flounder on it too, just a case of going down the beach a bit, away from the regularly fished area at the entrance and first 300yards to the left..
