Golf has been played in Dooks since 1889 and so is one of the oldest clubs in Ireland. Dooks (A Gaelic word for Sand Dunes), is renowned for its hospitality and spectacular scenery. From its gentle rolling fairways there are breathtaking views of Dingle Bay, the stunning sandy beaches of Rossbeigh and Inch and the magnificent McGillycuddy Reeks. Even though this links is not as exposed as some Irish courses and features an amazing variety of gorse and heather and wild flowers, the “gentle” wind is never far away and the narrow genuine sandy fairways and well contoured greens offer you a real taste of traditional links golf at its very best.

The Natterjack Toad, which the club has adopted as its emblem, is a rare and preserved species and its habitat is preserved on a stunning course which combines the visual qualities of links and heath with its backdrop of mountains, beaches and ocean and its great profusion of natural flora. From its gentle rolling fairways there are breathtaking views of Dingle Bay, the stunning sandy beaches of Rossbeigh and Inch and the magnificent McGillycuddy Reeks all of which makes it an idyllic golfing location.
