Trá an Dóilín, is located near the village of Carraroe. The beach is noted for its very fine "coral". Contrary to the English name, Coral Strand, the beach is actually made of coralline algae known as maerl. This type of beach (biogenic gravel) is rare and of great conservation importance. There are public changing rooms and toliet facilities available at the beach

Built on 250 acres of Connemara moorland the course measures approximately 6900 yards with water coming into play at 13 holes. The design has resulted in generously proportioned fairways, many elevated tee boxes and some splendid carries. Great care has been taken to construct extra large greens with subtle burrows that will test even the best golfer. The final four holes especially provide an amazing finish to a satisfying and memorable experience. Less than 15 minute drive from Moycullen.
