Tralee Golf Club is a rugged, awe-inspiring links on the Atlantic edge of County Kerry. Designed by Arnold Palmer in 1984, it was his first course in Europe – and he called the front nine what he built, and the back nine what God created. That says it all. The opening holes are solid links – undulating fairways, pot bunkers, and rolling green complexes. But once you hit the 10th tee, the course becomes a coastal epic. Holes weave through towering dunes, cliff edges, and wide Atlantic panoramas. The 12th, a par-3 across a rocky chasm, is unforgettable. The 17th, a long par-4 running along the ocean, is exposed and unforgiving. It’s not just a scenic round – Tralee plays firm, fast, and brutally tough in wind. Greens are subtle and quick, and the dunes demand creativity. The setting is remote, peaceful, and humbling. It’s not just a round of golf – it’s a journey through Ireland’s wild west, where history, nature, and golf collide in spectacular fashion.
