Westport
Type: Parkland
Par: 73
Location: Mayo
Situated on the shores of Clew Bay in the shadow of Croagh Patrick, Ireland's famous holy mountain, Westport Golf Club is the finest parkland golf course in the west and north west of Ireland. The first five holes at Westport represent a relatively benign start and they offer an opportunity to get warmed up for the challenge ahead. On an overall assessment, the back nine at Westport are probably more memorable, with the best being the run of holes from the 12th to the 15th. The 12th and 14th holes are both very testing but scenic par threes with backdrops of Westport Harbour and Clew Bay on the 12th and Croagh Patrick on the 14th.
