The golf course is on a headland reaching out into the Irish Sea on the northern end of the peninsula of Islandmagee and is bounded on either side by the sandy beaches of Brownsbay and Ferris Bay. It overlooks the Port of Larne and the mouth of Larne Lough and has fine panoramic views of the Antrim Coast and, on a clear day, the west coast of Scotland.
Larne Golf Club was founded in 1894 and is the 9th oldest in Ireland and the 5th oldest in Ulster. In 2019 we celebrate our 125th anniversary. The original course, designed by G L Bailie, was played in the opposite direction around the boundaries of the present course as far as the 5th green and back to the 9th green as the fields now occupied by the present 2nd, 3rd and 4th holes were not then leased by the Club.
