Our picture perfect 5th hole here on the Dunluce Links, White Rocks. A brilliant strategic hole where a long drive over the mounds to the right will be rewarded with a much shorter approach to the green. Beware though, the beach below await anyone going long of the green.

A journey up the 7th on the Dunluce. 'Curran Point' is a long and demanding par 5, playing at 552 yards from the white tees. Avoiding the bunker on the right is essential, whilst the uphill approach is quite narrow so accuracy is key.

The elevation change on the 1st hole of the Dunluce is hard to portray. From the fairway there is a steep incline to the green, and the front bunker which protects the green is clearly visible. What's not so visible, is its sneaky little brother hiding away on the left.
