Tralee Golf Club

Enjoy one of Ireland's oldest golf courses. If you want to enjoy a golf break in Kerry, you won't want to miss the opportunity to play Dooks - a truly magical location for a breathtaking golf course. Discover breathtaking views on a unique Links that golfers have enjoyed since 1889.

It is a very good links-type course, the international notoriety of which has been somewhat eclipsed by prestigious neighbors. Created at the end of the 19th century, it is narrow, not very long and often windy. The greens are small and well protected by deep bunkers. A few blind shots spice it up. A pleasant test of golf before tackling even more difficult giants.

Situated on the northwest coast of County Kerry, on a beautiful stretch of sand dunes overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, you will find at Ballybunion two unique and very demanding golf courses.
Ballybunion Old Course
Ballybunion Old Course, near the mouth of the Shannon River, is a golf landmark. This traditional links was originally created in 1893 with 12 holes then modified over the years until it became an 18 hole in 1926, redesigned by Tom Simpson in the thirties.

The first few holes are relatively affordable, with the spectacular part of the course starting from the 6th hole with challenges requiring constant mastery, especially in strong winds. Located between the immense dunes and the Atlantic Ocean, the fairways appear narrow, the tiny greens and the bunkers are formidable. This masterpiece is ranked in the top 5 of the best golf courses in Ireland.
Trent Jones Cashen Race
This course, sometimes more difficult to decipher than its neighbor the famous Old Course, was built by the talented American architect Robert Trent Jones. The landscapes are similar, between the dunes and the ocean, but it is an original design where each hole has its own personality. A fantastic course, a bit too much in the shadow of the Old Course.
