Overview: Bantry Bay Golf Club is a spectacular and atmospheric parkland-coastal course perched on the hills overlooking the Atlantic. Designed by the legendary Eddie Hackett and opened in 1975, the layout is celebrated for its breathtaking panoramic views of Bantry Bay and the Beara Peninsula. The course is characterized by its significant elevation changes and its integration with the wild West Cork landscape, offering a wide and scenic round where the wind from the Atlantic is a constant and challenging factor.
Did You Know? The course is particularly famous for its 12th hole, a 174-yard par-3 that requires a high-stakes shot over a deep valley to a green perched on a cliff edge. It is widely considered one of the most stunning "postcard" holes in Irish golf, offering a 360-degree perspective of the bay and the distant Caha Mountains that capture the raw beauty of the Wild Atlantic Way.
