Trump International Golf Links at Doonbeg is one of the most celebrated links courses in Ireland - a Greg Norman design that wraps around Doughmore Bay on the Clare coast, with the Atlantic as both backdrop and hazard. It is 1 hour from Shannon Airport, making it the closest world-class links course to the terminal. Shannon Transfers regularly transfers golfers from Shannon Airport directly to the Doonbeg clubhouse, handling the journey so you arrive focused and ready rather than navigating unfamiliar roads.
Trump International Golf Links, Doonbeg: The Course
Doonbeg Golf Links was designed by Greg Norman and opened in 2002, making extensive use of the natural sand dunes along the Clare coastline. The course was purchased by Donald Trump in 2014 and has since undergone significant renovation of both the links and the five-star lodge. The result is one of Ireland's most complete golf resort experiences - the course itself is challenging, heavily exposed to Atlantic wind, and consistently ranked among the top links courses in the country. Tee times at Doonbeg are bookable through the resort directly.
