Links Golf in Ireland

For golfers, the lure of testing skill and talent against course and weather on an Irish links is irresistible. Experience the invigorating feeling of tasting the salty sea air while navigating a course that has been carved out in the main by nature. 

TRY: 

• Royal Portrush and Royal County Down in the North.          

• Ballybunion and Waterville in the South.          

• The European on Brittas Bay in the East.          

• Enniscrone and Lahinch in the West.          

• And that’s not all… there’s also Baltray, Tralee, Doonbeg, Ballyliffin, Carne, Castlerock and Portstewart, to name just a few.          

If you're near the coast in Ireland, you’re close to a fine links course - and you’d be mad to miss out! Just ask the pros. Tiger Woods traditionally spends the week before a British Open savoring the delights of Waterville or Royal County Down. And Tom Watson liked Ballybunion, with its jumbled dunes and rugged setting on clifttops overlooking the Atlantic, so much that he said it offers some of the finest and most demanding shots into the greens of any course.
