Links golf between the Wadden Sea and Sylt airport
Reviewed October 1, 2023
Played on September 21,2023. According to the address on Sylt, the 18-hole course (PAR 73) is located in the municipality of Tinnum, directly behind Sylt airport. Every now and then a plane lands or takes off, but that doesn't bother us. The course is called a links course, is only separated by a road and is located almost directly on the Wadden Sea and has the usual pot bunkers. The rough was mown quite short in our game and the dunes are rather low. Everyone can decide for themselves whether it is a real link or not. There are a few water hazards in the form of small streams that run through two or three lanes. You can see the sea here and there from one or two elevated tees, otherwise the course is flat. The fairways are open. You should take the wind into account and then the place shows its teeth. The length of the course, especially from the women's tees, should not be underestimated. Visual tee boards at the tees make orientation easier. The condition was very good, especially the greens were fast and true despite aeration. The game was manageable on a windy but sunny Thursday morning. Tee times can be booked online via the homepage. The standard green fee in high season is €95, which is in line with the general prices in Sylt, but is still cheaper than in Budersand. If you tee off by 9:30 a.m. you can play for €10 cheaper and you can also get a sundowner. The starter in her starter house right at the parking lot was nice. The actual clubhouse, the pro shop and the restaurant (not in use) are a few meters away from the parking lot behind the driving range. I can recommend the round at the Marine Golf Club. However, the place doesn't quite come close to Budersand.

Tip top – deserved 5 stars!
Reviewed September 26, 2023
Yesterday, in beautiful weather, we decided to play our first 18-hole round on the links course at the Marine Golf Club.
The reception in the clubhouse was extremely pleasant, the lady booked us in spontaneously, gave us a good introduction, explained to us where we could rent trolleys and showed us the beautiful sun terrace for the break after the round.
We were also given a very friendly welcome in the pro shop and were given our rental trolleys. The driving range is located directly in front of the pro shop, and it is only a short distance to the putting green and starter house.
The course is in very good condition, the bunkers are taking their toll and the view of the Wadden Sea from number 14 lets you know that you made the right decision to play at the Marine Golf Club today.
After a nice round, we received a very friendly welcome from the restaurant and were pleasantly surprised by the selection of dishes.
Our recommendation is to definitely try the Marine Bistro!
All around very nice and friendly people, a beautifully maintained course and a great golf experience.
We will be back!

Never experienced such interaction - golf course not recommended!
Reviewed September 19, 2023
After we didn't see any information on the website or on the course that dogs were not allowed on the course, we went to reception with our golf-experienced and perfectly behaved pug and purchased our green fee. At reception we were not asked about our dog and we were wished a nice ride. We played the sundowner round and were almost alone. On the square we were then pointed out in the most aggressive way by a member that there was an alleged ban on dogs. After we politely pointed out that we were neither aware of this ban nor had our dog been referred to in the clubhouse, the old man began to insult and threaten us. We left the place stunned. Because this experience wasn't enough, the secretariat of this golf club called me the next morning on my private number, which I never gave, only to attack me aggressively and, without letting me speak, to wait for an explanation, to send me off then end the conversation immediately. I have never encountered such aggressive behavior and such vulgar behavior in almost 20 years on golf courses around the world. I am speechless and can only vehemently advise against this place. One star is still too many. Waste of money and a wonderful day on Sylt.

Successful link forgery
Reviewed December 26, 2020
Played in early October 2020, handicap 12
A links course that has been imitated very well! Unfortunately, the ground is a little softer than on real links courses - there is also a little lack of DIRECT proximity to the sea. In addition, the ugly surroundings also tarnish the "links" character - high-rise buildings in Westerland on the one hand, agricultural facilities and machines on the other, as well as the club's large parking lot are constantly in view.
The location is generally quiet as far as possible - unfortunately, every now and then aircraft taking off / landing and other work at the directly neighboring airport interfere. Fortunately, however, air traffic is quite low.
The very well maintained course does not present any major challenges. The rough is completely mowed down - so there are no problems worth mentioning, even if you scatter a little - you just have to be careful not to hide the balls from the rough. Furthermore, one should stay away from the bunkers - treacherous pots like in Scotland! The slightly undulating, moderately speedy greens are also a bit tricky. And “of course” the island's omnipresent wind complicates the game.
A cart is only required as protection against wind and rain and because the paths to the next green are sometimes poorly signposted.
As usual on Sylt, gambling here is by no means a bargain. The EUR 70, - (off-season) are simply a little excessive for what is offered. Very gratifying: Since two green bunkers were under construction on runway 14, a 5, - discount was granted, even if, contrary to the announcement, it was not necessary to play on a wintergreen, as the work on these bunkers for the day had already been completed.
Conclusion: Very good 3 stars for the maintenance condition and the mostly very successful replica of a link (dune hill, pot bunker) - for more there is simply a lack of highlights, technical challenges, variety and beautiful landscape. (In the "Golf Bear Ranking": 5 out of 10 points.)
NB - My personal ranking of the four Sylt places:
Clear leadership for “Budersand” - the other three places are very close together in the evaluation. "GC Sylt" in 2nd place, due to the slightly more pleasant landscape just before the "Marine" course - slightly behind due to the less varied "Morsum" courses).
Recommendation: If you are ever on the island - "take" all four seats. If you happen to be not there - go there because of “Budersand”!

Service desert gastro
Reviewed August 17, 2020
I think every mini golf course would ensure that your customers can buy drinks at 30 degrees. Your gastro will be locked for a private party at 14:00. At the end of our round at 5 p.m., the tables were nicely set, but nothing to see from the company.

Dear Mr. Thommy77,
We are very sorry that you had to stay thirsty after the round on August 15th. Our starter is also very sorry if he did not inform you of the closing of the restaurant in the early afternoon.
Our tenant is only allowed to accept private parties twice a season. Such celebrations are - especially in the Corona year 2020 - of immense importance for the economic operation of the restaurant.
If it is only a question of selling drinks, this was done, as always, in the starter house. Nevertheless, we can understand your displeasure.
Best regards

Navy is good
Reviewed June 29, 2020
The first 9 holes are splashing like this, but it is indeed real left-hand golf!
From the 15th the place is really good!
Marine is a nice and good links place without a sea view! After Budersand clear number 2, greens were too slow!

Beautiful golf experience
Reviewed September 10, 2017
We played this beautiful facility at the end of August 2017. The condition of the place was very good, the area is nice. Very friendly staff. Head a flight division which is not comprehensible for us: advance a two-flight, a four-flight, behind it a threesome and then again a two-flight. Everyone knows how that goes. Then he told us not to let us go. Was certainly problematic for the following flights. Something like this could be organized much better, especially since the registration via PC Caddy took place weeks before. This did not stop our beautiful golfing day. Also afterwards in the clubhouse everything worked very pleasantly. If you are staying on Sylt you can only recommend this place.

Too expensive for the standard of maintenance of the fairways, bunkers or greens, or too slow greens. For new guests very confusing sequence of tracks.

Rather easier place, flat with no real 'highlights', challenges and finesse. Maintenance state and 'trappings' mediocre, orientation is not always easy. Reception friendly and helpful, fair pricing.

Refreshing golfing experience
Reviewed July 1, 2015
Fresh wind up stiff breeze, hard bottom, bouncing balls with a long, long roll, deep bunkers, fast greens and roughs, occasionally even let the ball visible. Varied fairways. The service, especially in the starter house, very friendly, helping individual players in a suitable flight to find together. Green fee for Sylt conditions are favorable.
For perfect links experience really missing is the sea view.

Struggle with the elements
Reviewed August 25, 2014
I liked the place prepared vile fun. Pure Links Golf, sun, lots of wind and rain... and more. The course is fair, all obstacles clearly visible, no blind strokes necessary. The greens were not as fast as expected, otherwise the place was in good shape.
Who likes links courses, should aufteen here. I would stay here again.

The place we played in the spring. The fairways and greens were well maintained. Playful and landscaped the Navy GC is compared to the other clubs on the island rather mediocre. Back then, we unfortunately won (yet again) no positive impression of the club manager and the staff.

No real course left
Reviewed May 29, 2013
The space we prisen be left as a true course. But you only see tracks of a railway from the sea and left right course is only available on the second nine, but there snd only three HAMPERS. The place is well maintained except for the discounts that are slightly too sandy. The bistro is nice the food is good but the hosting is moderate. All in one a good place for beginners but also for advanced.
