Ballycastle Golf Club
About Ballycastle Golf Club
Ballycastle Golf Club lies beside Ballycastle Bay on the Causeway Coast of County Antrim, with views towards Rathlin Island, Scotland and the North Antrim coastline. Established in 1890, the club offers a distinctive 18-hole round that begins with parkland holes before moving towards links terrain beside the sea. Trees, rivers, dunes and coastal wind all contribute to its changing character. Historical landmarks, including the nearby Bonamargy Friary ruins, add another feature to the landscape. The club welcomes local and visiting golfers, with a clubhouse, dining and equipment hire available. Its setting makes it a memorable stop on a Causeway Coast golf itinerary.
Course Information
Ballycastle combines two playing environments in a single 18-hole course. The first five holes have a parkland character beside the Margy and Carey rivers, while the remaining stretch runs through more exposed links ground near the shore, sand dunes and gorse. Coastal winds influence club selection, with views towards Rathlin Island and Scotland. The twelfth-century Bonamargy Abbey ruins form an unusual out-of-bounds feature.
