Our conclusion:
Those who play the Marine Golf Club Sylt experience golf in its most original form - embedded in a spectacular dune landscape and always accompanied by the rough North Sea wind. The course, designed by Kenneth W. Moodie, was opened in 2006 and is considered a prime example of modern links golf in Germany. The design is based on classic Scottish models: Over 77 deep pot bunkers, undulating greens and natural heathland characterize the course and demand strategic play.
Every round is an adventure, as the wind and the open landscape make the course a sporting challenge that never gets boring. The signature holes are particularly noteworthy: hole 8, for example, is a real highlight, as it impresses not only in terms of play but also the landscape with its elevated tee and a green framed by dunes. Hole 15 is also memorable - a par 3 that scores points with a well-defended green and spectacular views of the surrounding area. The Marine Golf Club Sylt is a course with character that will delight both ambitious golfers and nature lovers. The relaxed, down-to-earth atmosphere and modern infrastructure round off the experience. Anyone who plays golf on Sylt should definitely not miss this course!
