Golf de Brest Iroise

Golf de Brest Iroise serves the greater Brest metropolitan area in western Finistère, offering the region's largest city a substantial course set in the undulating countryside beyond the urban fringe. The course takes its name from the Iroise Sea, the stretch of Atlantic off the Pointe de Saint-Mathieu that defines this wild western tip of Brittany. Fairways move through a mix of wooded sections and open land, giving the round variety and keeping conditions interesting throughout the year. The prevailing Atlantic weather keeps the course fresh and green, though wind can be a significant factor on the more exposed holes. Brest's naval museums, the Oceanopolis aquarium and Crozon peninsula are within easy reach, making Brest Iroise a natural choice for golfers combining sport with exploration of Finistère's dramatic western coastline.
