When love for golf is combined with an appreciation for wonderful views, an epic game is born. Throughout the world, stunning golf courses hug gorgeous coastlines and are carved into mountainsides to create an unforgettable game. The Thracian Cliffs golf course, Lofoten Links and Tralee Golf Club possess a majestic charm in a remarkable setting to give golfers a once-in-a-lifetime golfing experience.

 

Thracian Cliffs, Bulgaria

An abundance of cliffside sea views drapes each of the 18 holes of the Thracian Cliffs Golf Course in Northern Bulgaria. The over 200-acre course appears to have been sculpted into the cliffs of the Black Sea coast. The Gary Player Signature course ensures that golfers will face challenges during their game, yet remain appreciative of the modern design tactics. The 6th hole of the course is the signature hole due to its cliff-top tee-off location with the green set 40 meters below. The incredible views and lengthy course prove to be one of the best golfing experiences the world has to offer.

Lofoten Links, Norway

Placed on the island of Gimsøya in Norway, sandy beaches act as natural bunkers and the ocean is used as a water hazard on this astounding 18-hole golf course. Lofoten Links’ seaside location boasts clear, unobstructed views of the North, and offers a midnight sun golfing experience during the summer months. During the fall, golfers can experience a round under the dazzling Northern Lights. The course holds a rich history and is the home to two tombs from the Viking ages, adding to the impressive uniqueness of the course.

Tralee Golf Club, Ireland 

Set on the rugged Atlantic coast of Ireland, this links course flaunts lush, cliff-top greens and tees that are complemented by towering dunes and impressive ocean views. As the first European course designed and built by Arnold Palmer in 1984, Tralee Golf Club provides an ideal setting for golfers to have a challenging, unique and memorable golfing experience. The club’s roots, opening in 1896 as a 9-hole course with 120 members, creates a nostalgic aura around the course and adds to the rich history of this stunning area. Widely acclaimed as one of the finest links courses in the world, Tralee Golf Club is every golfer’s paradise.
