About The Area
Aberdeen City sits at the gateway to one of Scotland’s most powerful golf regions. This stretch of coastline is defined by towering dunes, firm-running links turf and championship layouts that test every part of your game.
Just south of the city lies Royal Aberdeen Golf Club, one of the oldest golf clubs in the world and consistently ranked among the UK’s top links. A short drive north brings you to Trump International Golf Links, a modern championship course carved through dramatic dunes along the North Sea. Nearby Cruden Bay Golf Club offers a more traditional, quirky links experience with unforgettable back-nine views.
Golf here is raw and authentic — wind can be a factor, the turf is fast and imaginative shot-making is rewarded. It’s proper Scottish golf.
Off the course, Aberdeen blends granite architecture with a lively restaurant scene. Union Street offers traditional pubs and contemporary dining, while the harbour serves excellent local seafood. Whisky lovers can easily access the nearby Speyside distilleries for tastings.
The ideal golf season runs from May through September, when daylight stretches long into the evening and the courses are at their firm-running best.
For golfers seeking championship links in a less commercialised setting, Aberdeen delivers world-class pedigree without the crowds of St Andrews.
