9th: The Nuns’ Pool

9

Before the course was extended to 18 holes in the mid-sixties, the nuns who holidayed at their house in Portnoo were fond of bathing in the rock pool near the ninth tee. Once the new holes opened, this tradition came to an end.

Par 4 – 365 m
Award-winning picturesque par four running with the seashore down the right-hand side. Longer hitters may drive over the hill from the peninsular tee and, if successful, this leaves a much shorter second. The simple play is a drive to the brow of the hill, which leaves a long downhill approach to the green.
