Tralee Golf Club

Tralee Golf Club is one of the most dramatic links experiences in Ireland. Set at Barrow on the rugged County Kerry coast, the course moves through towering dunes, sweeping fairways, cliff-top holes, Atlantic views, and natural landforms that make every round feel bold, scenic, and unmistakably Irish.

Founded in 1896, Tralee moved to its present Arnold Palmer-designed links in 1984. It remains one of Palmer’s most celebrated international designs and a course that fully embraces the landscape around it. The front nine offers a strong, strategic links test, while the back nine rises into one of the most visually memorable stretches of golf in Southwest Ireland.

Tralee is famous for its sense of drama. The wind, dunes, elevation changes, ocean views, and heroic lines all play a role, asking golfers to think clearly, choose carefully, and enjoy the adventure. It is a course with championship substance, but also with a rare sense of theater.

Playing Tralee is not simply about the score. It is about experiencing Arnold Palmer’s vision on one of Ireland’s great coastal landscapes, where the land, the Atlantic, and the game come together in unforgettable fashion.
