The coastal town of Portrush attracts tourists from far and wide, making it a lucrative location in which to develop properties. Set on a mile-long peninsula surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, Portrush is overlooked by the famous Dunluce Castle with blue flag beaches on either side. Property development here is a lucrative prospect, and this is reflected by a dramatic increase in developer interest across the town and surrounding area.

amusement park in the country as well as a harbour and the historic Royal Portrush Golf Club, one of the best and most challenging golf courses in the world and a host venue for The Open Championship. In 2022, Coleraine housebuilder CBIN Developments began working with Co Antrim-based 2020 Architects to create The Tides, a Portrush development of 11 two- and three-bedroom self-contained modern apartments. The new homes, built on Causeway Street, are set in a most picturesque location overlooking the Irish Sea.
