Dublin is a veritable treasure trove of golf. 50 clubs dotted around the city and its environs, offer golf of all shapes and sizes, from spectacular European Tour event venues to more modest suburban challenges. The city itself is a highly entertaining place, famous for its literary and theatrical landmarks, its historic associations, and a night life which could be best described as bordering on the excessive. Served by three surface ferry services from Britain and world wide connections through Dublin International Airport, golfers can be on a first tee within 20 minutes of arrival.
