North Berwick West is one of the most scenic 18 hole championship links courses in Scotland with views over the Isle of May, the islands of Fidra and Craigleith, the Bass Rock and across the Forth to the hills of Fife.

The most famous and copied hole is the Par 3 15th, Redan.

Played over a bunkered ridge to a sloping plateau green and guarded by a huge bunker.

The 14th, Perfection, is known for two blind shots.

The 13th, Pit, is characterised by a dry stone wall running along the front of the green.

Every hole on the course is interesting, even the first, probably the dullest, is better than the best elsewhere.
