The lifeguards will operate on Benone, Portstewart, East Strand and Whiterocks from 11am to 7pm.
Mike Grocott, RNLI Regional Lifeguard Manager, said: “The RNLI is delighted to be returning for its third season on Northern Irish beaches – starting with five beaches this Easter.
“We will be on Portstewart Strand, Portrush East Strand and Whiterocks beach for the first time this year which is a direct response to the footfall activity on those beaches in recent years.”
