Seapoint
Seapoint offers two distinct sets of holes, right next door to Co.
Louth Golf Club. Indeed, Seapoint’s closing holes could easily be an
extension of the great Baltray links as they back on to each other.
The front nine play over sedate terrain, where trees border the
course and fairways glide smoothly between low, rolling shoulders
of dunes. Gorse plays its part emphasising the importance of
accurate driving and the doglegs have to be respected. The turf is
tight and while it doesn’t quite feel like a links, this is exactly what it
is. The back nine ramp up the temperature, introducing the shapes
and subtleties that make links golf such fun. The closing four holes,
above the beach and through the biggest dunes, are a delicious
finale. The 15th and 17th are gorgeous par threes while the par five
18th streaks straight towards the clubhouse and tees off beside the
beach.
