Portmarnock's incredible links land is home to one of the most revered golf courses in the UK and Ireland.
Utterly exposed to the elements, this layout is not for the faint-hearted; there are no tricks or nasty surprises here, but there are countless extremely challenging holes. Tall rough and undulating fairways are to be negotiated en route to the exquisite putting surfaces, which are guarded by cavernous pot bunkers and vast slopes and swails.
The curve of the Howth peninsula renders Portmarnock extremely isolated, and visitors will be struck by the remote, rugged atmosphere of the golf course, as they attempt to master one of the purest tests of links golf around.
Be sure to visit this austere, traditional golf club as part of your golf tour in Dublin; all those who play Portmarnock will understand why it is held in such high regard.
