Today play Doonbeg. The newest addition to Ireland's
collection of storied links courses having opened in 2002. The course is located
between Lahinch and Ballybunion on the west coast. Originally identified by the
Black Watch Regiment as the preferred site for their course in the 1890's, it
was overlooked in favor of Lahinch due to superior railroad access. Greg Norman
has designed a magnificent links course, carved out of a landscape of grass
covered dunes which border the Atlantic Ocean. Each of the holes offers
wonderful panoramas of the ocean and the Irish countryside.

Play Lahinch. Originally designed by Old Tom Morris and later
modified by Dr. Alister MacKenzie and most recently Martin Hawtree, the course
has a vast array of grass covered knolls and sweeping contours. Optimal use is
made of the many natural sand dunes, notably at the par three 5th hole, "The
Dell", where the green is completely hidden from the tee. Lahinch is the
permanent home to the South of Ireland Amateur Championship.
