Ayr and Prestwick are sister towns. Ayr itself is a popular shopping destination and boasts a racecourse, three golf courses, and Ayr Beach - a long sandy strip of coastline overlooking the Firth of Clyde and the lovely Isle of Arran. Prestwick is best known for its international airport, but there is a lot more to it. The town is famous for its championship golf courses and its variety of pubs, bars, restaurants, and cafes.
