Ireland Golf Vacations Combine Golf, Whiskey and Fishing
Irish golf vacations combine a golfing experience in two countries: Eire, or the Irish Republic, and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. However, you would not notice by the welcome you will receive in each part of the island. The Emerald Isle is well named after its lush greenery, and the golf courses in Ireland make full use of that.
In fact, many of the Irish Golf Courses are links courses, such as Royal Portrush, used for the Senior British Open, and Ballybunion, a links course in County Kerry that is situated in a small seaside town. Ballybunion is rated among the top ten golf courses in the world, and is a typical links course, built among sand dunes on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Tom Watson loves it.
Too Many Irish Golf Courses to Name
There is little point in naming the famous Irish Golf Courses since it would take more room that is available here, so let's just assume that all the courses you play on your Irish golfing vacation will be good ones. What you need to know now is what else Ireland has to offer.
Well, there is the Irish whiskey, the Irish stout such as Murphy's or Guinness, and the Irish welcome. There are leprechauns, the Blarney Stone and the fantastic Dublin Bay prawns. There is everything for every member of the family, from the bright lights of Dublin, Galway and Cork to the seaside resorts and funfairs than dot the coastline of Ireland from Dublin, and right round back to Dublin again.
Whatever golfing vacation package you choose, you will find plenty for the family to do. There are walks, water sports, fishing of all kinds, both inland and sea fishing...try the shark fishing if you have the guts for it...and also the people. Only in Ireland will find grocery stores with a small bar round the back, where you are offered a drink while you wait until the official opening time!
Enjoy the Vacation but Don't Forget the Golf
Many people end up forgetting the golf and just enjoying the vacation. It's that kind of place. If, however, you are a serious golf player, then you will not be short of golf courses or people to play against. The golf schools are excellent, with a wealth of experience in teaching the game. After all, this is the home of Padraig Harrington, Darren Clarke and Paul McGinley, and if you are wondering who they are, ask the American Ryder Cup team!
There is a lot to do during Irish golf vacations, and lots of people willing to teach you how to do it properly. When it comes to golf and entertainment the Irish excel, and you will enjoy an experience that you will always remember. Great golf and a great time for everybody!

Did you hear about the men only irish golf course?
And how women were allowed to golf there but they couldn't become members. There was a big fuss from some women saying how it was "sexist" and "a bad day for equality" I personally as a woman couldn't be more annoyed at the people who said that! Did they ever hear of curves? Men aren't allowed into it yet they don't seem to care in the slightest! There are plenty of women-only organizations and clubs so in my opinion they are the sexists. What do you think?
no it's not about I can't go to curves (I CAN!) or about how they don't allow women! It's about all the fuss some sexist cows made to get in to it when they don't seem to realise that they themselves are members of one-gender-only- allowed groups!
