Brora is a traditional seaside links course, established in 1891. The course as it is now owes much to a visit by James Braid, whose golfing fingerprints are all over the Highlands and East Coast, in 1923, when he began his redesign work.
Brora now reflects the classic tenets of Highland links golf design, with a gentle opening and its short holes facing different directions. As such, the golfer must negotiate the prevailing wind in all directions, and considering the course's exposed position, it is often more than a gentle breeze.
Most notable at Brora are the 13th green, one of the jewels in Braid's considerable crown, and the elevated 17th tee, where the golfer must drive toward Tarbatness, the lighthouse after which the hole is named.
