Which golf courses are there in Travemünde and the Bay of Lübeck?

Yes, you can play golf in Travemünde – at one of the most established courses on the German Baltic coast. The Lübeck-Travemünde Golf Club has sat high above the Brodten cliffs since 1921, with 27 holes and wide views over the Bay of Lübeck. For a golf holiday on the Baltic, the distances are short here: beach, promenade and golf course are all in the same town.

Around Travemünde, the Bay of Lübeck adds two more large facilities – the Maritim Golfpark Ostsee near Warnsdorf with 33 holes and the Seeschlösschen course in Timmendorfer Strand with 36 holes. Together that is almost a hundred fairways within about fifteen minutes, from a championship course to a 6-hole short course for beginners. Guests with a DGV card are welcome at all three; book the green fee and tee time directly with each club.
