Nairn Dunbar Golf Club

Nairn Dunbar is the second of the two main links courses in Nairn — distinct from the Nairn Golf Club (which hosted the 1999 Walker Cup), but on the same Moray Firth coastline and sharing much of the same terrain character. Founded 1899, the course runs east of the town centre along the shore of the firth, with views to the Black Isle and the Sutherland hills.

Par 72, around 6,700 yards — longer than the Nairn Golf Club, and with a layout that uses the natural seaside ground in a less manicured but arguably more characterful way. The course lacks the high-profile tournament history of its more famous neighbour, which keeps both the visitor traffic and the green fee more manageable.

Visitor green fee is £50–75, roughly half the Nairn Golf Club rate. For visitors planning a Nairn golf trip, the natural combination is both courses over two days — Nairn Golf Club in the morning (£100–150), Nairn Dunbar in the afternoon or the following day (£55–75). The two courses give a useful comparison between a formally maintained Walker Cup venue and a club that hasn't had its rough edges polished.
