Only a 15-minute drive from Dublin Airport, the course is located
across the estuary from Malahide, just north of Portmarnock. This
beautiful links is not actually an island but a narrow spur of
land bounded on three sides by Donabate beach, the sea and Broadmeadow
estuary. Nestling between the highest sand dunes of any links
course in Ireland its rugged beauty cannot fail to impress.
Once
sampled, it is a golfing experience never to be forgotten.

to play, with a great variety of shots"
Christy O'Connor Snr.
"One
of the finest links courses, very challenging, especially in the
wind"

"A
fantastic links which tests every club in the bag"
Darren Clarke.
