Covesea Links

Moray, Scotland

Covesea Links is a 9-hole links golf course located on the Moray Coast between Lossiemouth and Hopeman in Scotland. Nestled in a scenic cove at the end of a winding road, the course follows the natural contours of the coastal landscape, with the sea visible from every hole. The layout features dunes, rocky outcrops, and sandy beach adjacent to the fairways, creating an authentic links experience. The course presents moderate difficulty with varied challenges throughout. The opening holes are relatively straightforward before the design intensifies from the sixth hole onward. Notable features include elevated tee boxes, blind shots over rocky terrain, and strategically positioned bunkers. The 8th hole is noted as potentially drivable, while the 6th features an elevated par-3 design with a receptive bowl green. Immaculate greens and natural fairways characterize the course condition. Operated as a pay-and-play facility with competitive green fees, Covesea Links offers an accessible introduction to Scottish links golf while maintaining genuine challenge for experienced players.
