The Island Golf Club

The Island Golf Club is located along the coast north of Dublin and is regarded as one of Ireland’s most traditional links courses. Established in 1890, it is set within natural sand dunes overlooking the Irish Sea. The course delivers an authentic links experience with open fairways, dramatic dune formations and demanding green complexes.

The layout weaves through high dune ridges and natural hollows, with several holes running parallel to the shoreline. Wind is a constant influence, placing clear emphasis on trajectory control, accuracy and strategic planning. The Island is known for its strong bunkering and firm, fast greens that define its classic links character.

Ranked among the finest courses in Ireland, it has hosted numerous national and international championships. The Island Golf Club suits experienced golfers seeking a genuine Irish links round with historical depth and a clear competitive edge.
