About The Area
Hayling Island is a strong Hampshire base for a traditional seaside golf break, especially for golfers who want proper links golf, sea air and easy access to Portsmouth, Chichester and the South Coast. It has a quieter feel than the bigger resort towns, but still gives you beaches, watersports, coastal walks and classic British seaside appeal.
The main draw is Hayling Golf Club, one of the standout links courses on England’s south coast. The club was officially founded in 1883, giving it real heritage, and it sits on Links Lane on the island itself. The course is promoted around its “Pure & Untamed” links character, with coastal terrain, dunes, wind and proper seaside golf conditions.
For extra golf nearby, Tournerbury Golf Centre on Hayling Island offers a more relaxed 9-hole option, with a 3,000-yard course, 10-bay floodlit driving range, teaching academy, pro shop and café. That makes it useful for mixed-ability groups or a warm-up round before playing Hayling Golf Club.
Away from golf, Hayling Island has over three miles of beaches facing the Solent, plus more shoreline around Langstone and Chichester Harbours. The beaches have also held Blue Flag and Seaside Award recognition for cleanliness and management.
For Hashtag Golf Travel customers, Hayling Island works best as a South Coast golf weekend, a links-golf short break, or part of a wider Hampshire and West Sussex itinerary. It is not a luxury resort destination, but for traditional links golf, coastal scenery and a proper seaside feel, it is a very solid UK option.
