Stevenston Beach is a Local Nature Reserve due to it containing one of the most dynamic dune systems in Ayrshire. The dunes are home to rare vegetation such as Babington's orache and Isle of Man cabbage, as well as common dune wildflowers, such as kidney vetch, tufted vetch, and bird's-foot trefoil, which support many species of insect.

Hiking

Walking on/on the beach is great. Your feet don't sink in too deeply.
