Course Description:

Overlooking Cork’s sweeping landscape, Harbour Point is now well established as a premier championship course. This, in itself, is a deserved tribute to its widespread appeal, given that the course only opened for play in June of 1991.In its layout and design, it represents a test for the best. At 6,163 m and a par 72, Harbour Point provides for a full range of shot making, from the demands of the par threes to the precision required for the rest of the tree-lined holes.

A magnificent appointed clubhouse compliments the quite ambience that is a feature of Harbour Point. Group and individual golf lessons are given daily in the 21-bay all weather driving range, which also incorporates a fully stocked golf shop. Early bird green-fee before 11.00am midweek. Always telephone to check availability.
