Portstewart Golf Club (Strand Course)

Portstewart Strand Course, situated along the dramatic North Coast of Northern Ireland, is one of the premier links golf courses in the country and arguably one of the most picturesque golfing venues in the world. The Strand Course has earned its reputation as a true test of links golf, set against the stunning backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean.  The Strand Course offers a formidable challenge to golfers of all abilities. The course is renowned for its opening hole, considered one of the best starting holes in golf, where the tee shot descends from an elevated tee down to a fairway framed by towering dunes on either side. This is just a taste of what is to come as the course weaves its way through some of the largest dunes found in Ireland.

The natural contours of the land have been skillfully integrated into the design, creating a series of unique and challenging holes. The fairways are undulating, the bunkering is strategic, and the greens are fast and true, demanding precision and thoughtful shot selection. The ever-present wind off the Atlantic adds an extra layer of challenge, changing the character of the course from day to day.  Portstewart Strand Course is not just about the golfing challenge; it's also about the breathtaking beauty that accompanies it. The course offers stunning views of the Donegal hills, the Atlantic Ocean, and the River Bann, providing a tranquil and awe-inspiring setting for a round of golf.  For those seeking a memorable links experience, Portstewart Strand Course delivers on all fronts. It combines the elements of natural beauty, challenging golf, and warm hospitality.
