Venue

Gold Coast Golf Course

County Waterford, Ireland

Gold Coast Golf Club in Dungarvan, County Waterford, is a championship parkland course established in 1939. The 18-hole course plays to par 72 and stretches 6,204 metres (6,785 yards), featuring mature tree-lined fairways combined with newer challenging holes. The course benefits from an exceptional setting along the Irish coastline, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean for 1.5 miles, with unrivaled views of Dungarvan Bay, the Irish Sea, and Helvick Head. The layout cleverly integrates the original design with modern additions, creating a course that tests players of varying abilities. The combination of established fairways and newer holes provides variety in difficulty, while the coastal location and panoramic seascapes distinguish the course as a notable destination in Irish golf. The parkland setting and oceanside backdrop make it a scenic venue for championship play.
