Golf on Ærø

GOLF WITH A SEA VIEW

ÆRØ'S GOLF COURSE AND SKJOLDNÆS LIGHTHOUSE

Ærø is home to the only seaside links in Denmark with a sea view from all the greens . The course is located on the northern tip of the island, bordered by sea on three sides, and with Skjoldnæs Lighthouse in the middle as a prominent hallmark . It is a beautifully kept 18-hole seaside course, the like of which you would otherwise have to travel to Scotland or Ireland to experience . The view is unparalleled, especially in the summer, when you can see a flurry of sailing ships on the waters of the Baltic Sea and the South Funen Archipelago, making their way around Skjoldnæs Lighthouse .

A round of golf on this course is a rewarding experience, and many of our guest players return again and again . The course is eminently playable, although it does present some tough challenges on both the front and back nine – especially when the wind is blowing .

The front nine holes run along the south side of Ærø, while the back nine follow the coast behind Skjoldnæs Lighthouse on the northern tip of the island . The course is open every day from sunrise to sunset and to be allowed to play it, you need to buy a day pass or take out flex- or full membership of Ærø Golf Club .
