In many ways, Connemara Golf Club's 27 holes offer golfers a classic links experience. A constant sea breeze sweeps across this wide and uncompromising series of rough terrain and pot bunkers. Golfers will need a strong chipping and putting game for any chance a reaching par. The course itself is laid out between the Atlantic Ocean and the Twelve Bens Mountains, and perfectly captures the majesty of the Connemarra countryside .
