Locals say that when God created the coastal land of the Estonian Golf & Country Club, he must have intended it to be a golf course as it winds its way so harmoniously along the Baltic Coast and the Jägala River delta.
Estonian Golf & Country Club offers golfers a 9 hole links style Stone Course and an 18 hole championship level Sea Course. The Sea Course surprises with its spectacular sea views impressively framed on it’s signature hole number 3. The historic Stone Course meanders through impressive stone wall formations and massive boulders from the ice age telling of a history dating back over 5000 years.
The Sea Course with it’s 18 holes stretching over 7,000 yards, is a true championship golf course. Holes built among unspoiled forests reach out to the beach and play along the Jägala River.
With an overall elevation change of 40 meters, oak alleys, ancient boulders, and natural ponds the site is befitting of world class golf course.
Due to the length and complexity, the Sea Course is a real challenge even for the golfer of the highest skill level. Since 2009, Golf World Magazine has voted the EGCC Sea Course as one of the best European golf courses. Since the Sea Course was first ranked 95th, it has improved it’s position over time. In 2014, the Sea Course was ranked 83rd in the prestigious TOP 100 with an editor’s comment that it could easily end up in the top 50.
