Eagles Golf Link Course Map
Hole 01 - 395 Yards | Par 4

Hole 1 - The Harbour Welcome

An inviting starting tee shot playing slightly downhill towards Clappenberg Bay. Keep your drive positioned in the center fairway to avoid lateral scrub on the right and set up a clear approach to the front-sloping green.

Hole 08 - 180 Yards | Par 3

Hole 8 - The Bay Crosswind

A memorable coastal par 3 playing over undulating terrain towards the bay waters. Shifting sea breezes make club selection tricky to hit and hold a well-bunkered green complex.

Hole 14 - 525 Yards | Par 5

Hole 14 - Coastal Ridge

A testing par 5 navigating winding woodland corridors and coastal ridge lines. Second shot requires tactical positioning away from fairway sand traps to allow an uncomplicated approach into a tiered green.

Hole 18 - 420 Yards | Par 4

Hole 18 - Clappenberg Finish

A scenic finishing hole leading back towards the clubhouse terrace. Demands a confident drive across gentle undulations followed by a mid-iron shot into a well-guarded green facing the bay.
