About the course

Cruit Island is a nine-hole links course on a small island off the Donegal coast, connected to the mainland by a narrow causeway. It is one of the most visually stunning golf courses in Ireland — perhaps in the world. The course is short and unpretentious, but the setting is extraordinary: Atlantic rollers, rocky outcrops, and views of the Donegal hills in every direction. Playing Cruit Island is less about the golf and more about the experience of being somewhere genuinely remote and beautiful.

Highlights

  • One of the most scenic golf courses in the world
  • Set on a small island connected by a causeway
  • Atlantic Ocean views from every hole
  • Nine holes — perfect for a morning or evening round
  • Utterly remote and unhurried — a genuine discovery
