Strandhill Golf Club - Par 69 - 6,243 Yards

Strandhill is a seaside golf links south of Sligo town that provides a holiday links test of some merit. Although it is short, the par of just 69 provides a stern challenge and the course's many doglegs must be negotiated successfully to return a decent score.

Many of these doglegs provide inviting shortcuts but the course is exposed to the Atlantic winds that blow off Sligo Bay and provide the main obstacle to a successful round. In fact, Standhill is an excellent venue to hone the shotmaking skills required at the more famous Rosses Point links across the bay.

Not to be underestimated by the proficient golfer, Strandhill is an excellent choice for higher handicaps who seek a links challenge that may be within their capabilities.
