Waterville Golf Links

County Kerry, Ireland

Waterville Golf Links is a true links golf course located in County Kerry, Ireland, situated on the shores of Ballinskelligs Bay. Ranked among Ireland's top courses, it is recognized as the number one true links course in Ireland, with less than 1% of golf courses worldwide holding true links status. The course features a challenging layout with distinctive coastal terrain characterized by natural dunes, rugged landscape, and panoramic views across Ballinskelligs Bay. The setting exemplifies the grandeur and natural beauty associated with premier links courses, with each hole presenting unique strategic challenges and scenic vistas. The course underwent a notable renovation by designer Tom Fazio, preceded by a Coastal Management project to ensure its excellence for future generations. The redesign maintained the course's challenging character while preserving its links authenticity and visual appeal. Waterville hosts several prestigious tournaments annually, including the Noel Cronin Memorial Tournament, the Kerry Cup, and the World Invitational Father & Son Tournament. The facility includes a renovated clubhouse with an 1889 Bar & Restaurant offering Irish cuisine, a pro shop, practice facilities including a range, chipping green, and putting green, and accommodation at Waterville House.
