Royal Portrush Golf Club's Atlantic-facing Antrim Coast links setting features marram grass, gorse, and sea buckthorn as the main pollen sources across the dune system, with exposure varying between the exposed clifftop holes and the more sheltered valley fairways. The North Atlantic coastal position means strong onshore winds frequently disperse pollen, while the very wet Northern Irish climate provides regular rainfall interruptions throughout the spring and summer season.

Does pollen in Derry come from nearby or far away?
Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Derry based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Derry, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.
This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
