The Leeward Golf Associationwas initiated in 1989.

The Mt Irvine Bay Golf Club has been generously offered as the home course of the Leeward Golf Association.

The Mount Irvine Bay Golf Course is an award-winning, championship quality 18-hole course with spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea, carved out from the grounds of an old coconut plantation.

 

 

 

The course was designed by the late Commander John D. Harris, who designed more than 30 golf courses, and this course is considered to be one of his finest. It is regarded as one of the premier golf courses in the Caribbean. There are sea views from every hole of the Caribbean Sea. The sharp, dog-legged, hole 9 is played from an elevated tee, showing all the hazards. The 5 par-3 holes are very challenging; only two are less than 200 yards. The course has a subterranean irrigation network.

Established in 1968, the course is set within gently rolling countryside along the north coast of Tobago, with a view of the sea from every hole and an abundance of massive coconut palm trees.
