Westman Islands Golf Club
Icelandic golf course / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Westman Island Golf Club is a golf club located on the Westman Islands (Vestmannaeyjar in Icelandic), on the island of Heimaey off the southern coast of Iceland. The club was established in 1938[1] as a nine-hole course and is the third oldest golf club in Iceland.[2] The course was expanded to 18 holes in the early 1990s by Hannes Thorsteinsson. It is the southernmost golf course in Iceland[3] and is located in between an extinct volcano and the Atlantic Ocean.[2]
Golf Monthly ranks it as one of the top 200 golf courses in Europe.[4]
The current course is par 70 and 5,820 yards in length.
