What's the story here?

How to get in?

Wind against tide situations develops heavy seas close to the head. Strong currents are experienced off Galley Head and Doolic Rock with the ebb tide setting onto the rock with great velocity. In these circumstances, it is advisable that a vessel stays offshore.

Do not anchor so far out as to be in the path of the fishing vessels making their way to Union Hall. The vessels tend to follow the deeper water channel before turning for the harbour so any vessel anchored well out could obstruct their path. More importantly, at night it will be difficult for the fishing vessel to so see a yacht's anchor light when set against the shore lights of Glandore.

• • There is no external VHF coverage in Glandore or Union Hall for a vessel with an antenna positioned lower than 4 metres. Vessels with a 10-metre high antenna will find external reception possible, if poor. Reception may prove more reliable for vessels with antennas mounted higher than this.
• • If beating up the harbour, the shores must be approached with caution, as they are foul out to some distance.
• • If approaching from the West it is just as possible to take a western cut into the harbour. This is by taking the 400 metres wide western pass between Adam Island and Sheela Point. From there steer to pass close to the east of Eve Island, to avoid a shallow patch with less than 1 metre located off the western shore about 300 metres west of Eve Island. Vessels taking a western approach should make note of Sheela's Rock, a reef which extends almost 200 metres eastward from Sheela Point and dries to 1.2 metres.
• •Likewise, there is a usable fairway on either side of The Dangers. In proceeding through the passage to the east of The Dangers, keep at least 100 metres off of the eastern shore.

Apart from Glandore Harbour and Union Hall there are two other anchorages in Glandore Bay between Galley Head and Glandore. They are both to the West of the Ross Carbery inlet which is too shallow to be of any use to the cruising yachtie.

Mill Cove is very narrow and approached from due South between the rocks to the East & West of the inlet. The rocks to the West of the inlet, known as The Black Rocks, are shown on the chart as drying but in fact they stand quite high above the HW mark at all states of the tide but bear in mind that the soundings here are based on Admiralty nineteenth century lead line surveys so give all dangers a good berth Although the cove is small and crowded with local moorings you should be able to find room for a temporary stop but might need to limit your swing with a second anchor. Tralong Bay is entered from the SE on a course of about 325T into the middle of the anchorage. Tralong Rock is very obvious but be aware that there are further rocks to the SE of it by about half a cable and also rocks between it and the shore so, again, give it a wide berth.  There are no facilities ashore and, obviously, no shelter from the South.  You should also be a bit wary of anchoring here in a strong NW air stream which just maybe gets funnelled by the valleys leading down into the coves.  Glandore Harbour and Union Hall Quay are at the head of the Glandore Harbour inlet. In general the NE side of the harbour is where the yachts live and Union Hall Quay is where the fishing vessels operate. Glandore is tucked into the NE corner where there is a minute drying harbour overlooked by the Glandore Marine Hotel which dominates the front.  Glandore has its own yacht club based at the Glandore Inn (which is up the hill to the SE of the pier) and provides visitors moorings for which they charge. Other than the hotel and the inn there is one other pub beyond the inn and that’s it, no shops or public toilets.  The corner of the bay off Glandore has numerous moorings (upwards of 50) so, if you prefer to anchor, you may find yourself quite a way out from the landing in the harbour. Given that there may not be room and that the shelter here is not very good in South to South East winds you may find it better to anchor close to the shore north east of Union Hall Quay. There are other moorings there but not nearly so many as at Glandore and the shelter is much better but don’t anchor too close to the channel marked on the chart as there is constant fishing trawler traffic which needs to use it.

You would be unwise to make the approach to Glandore harbour in the dark

....... or for the first time without AC 2092-1. This is also a very dangerous place to make for in strong SE winds; the sea builds into the entrance and will take you onto the rocks before you have time to avoid them. You have to remember that once you are this far west the Atlantic Ocean starts a hundred yards off the beach with all that that entails.  They lost a sizable fishing vessel here in January of 2012 after a night of gale force winds had battered it and then driven it onto Adam’s Island at dawn as it tried to get back in. The safest way in is via our Initial Fix between Adam’s Island and Goat’s Head although the channel between Sheela Point and Adam’s Island is perfectly viable as long as you identify Sheela’s Rocks.

If you are at all doubtful go round to the East of Adam’s Island; after all, it’s only an extra half mile.  Shape your course from the initial fix towards Long Point until you pick up the Glandore SW mark (a SHM, lit green Pylon) and then go for the middle of the gap between it and the west shore. There are two further green perches and a green SH buoy (Sunken Rock) to be left to starboard before the anchorage off Glandore can be gained straight ahead. Our photo of these marks on a foggy morning show just how prominent all these marks are so you should not be concerned about this entry in daylight; at night it would be a very different proposition and very brave, if not foolhardy, if you haven’t been here before.  If you intend going round to Union Hall be very aware that the water shoals for quite a way out to the north of Ballincolla House due East of the Quay; in the season it will be easy to judge where the channel is because the small boat moorings to the north of the channel are close to its margins 

Berthing, Mooring & Anchoring

The anchorages at Mill Cove and Tralong Bay have been discussed

......but you may be able to get some idea of what to expect at Mill Cove from this Google maps street View. As has been said, in Glandore harbour you can anchor off Glandore itself or pick up a visitors buoy; in fact it may be so busy here that a visitors’ buoy may be your only option and will cost you 15 Euros per vessel per night. At Union Hall there is room to anchor off the shore to the north of the deep channel. The anchorage marked on the charts to the north of Poulgorm bridge beyond Union Hall is no use for a boat with a mast as the clearance is too low but if you are confident of your echo sounder you might try for the deep pool just to the south of the bridge.

There are no facilities at Glandore apart from water on the pier; you will have to cross to Union Hall to find shops and fuel (and that has to be ordered by road tanker in sufficient quantities to make it worthwhile for the retailer)

Eating, Drinking & Entertainment

At Glandore there are two pubs and a hotel for eating and entertainment. Glandore Harbour Yacht Club members can be found most Sundays during the racing season at the Glandore Inn. They have a strong Classic boat racing fraternity (which explains that Dragon lying to a buoy in one of our photos). Their website is at http://www.glandoreyc.com In Union Hall the main shopping street is to the west of the causeway where there is a Post Office, a store, a fish shop, a coffee shop and five bars in as little as fifty yards; certainly got their priorities right in this village!!

The best golf clubs in moscow: luxury, exclusivity, and entertainment.

By Walter Raymond

February 24, 2015

• The Best Golf Clubs in…

In Russia, the western concept of building architecturally beautiful golf courses filled with modern and luxurious amenities has found fertile ground. What was considered a frivolous pastime during the time of the Soviets has become the latest trend for the stylish set. These days, there are countless options around Moscow to practice golf, polo, ski, yachting, and other sports alongside 5-star hotels, luxurious country houses, and magnificent villas.

The game of golf is a sport that requires passion and expertise. It is also part of a culture that considers this pastime a synonym of social prestige and exclusivity. In recent years, the new Russian elite has turned to golf as a vehicle of integration in the era of globalization. Golf courses are also meeting and socializing spaces where Muscovite tycoons can relax and also seal business deals.

Golf Courses in Russia

The Moscow Country Club, Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club, Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club, and Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia are some of the most exclusive and elegant golf courses in Russia. Some of them have made it to the list of Top 15 golf clubs in the world, a source of great prestige for the country.

Moscow Country Club Moscow Country Club

The first 18-hole golf course built in Russia, Moscow Country Club, hosts the exclusive PGA European Tour. Located just eight miles from the city center, this luxurious facility was created by architect Robert Trent Jones Jr . The design takes advantage of a typical Russian birch and spruce forest to provide a natural environment of extraordinary beauty.

Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club

The Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club is 18 miles from the heart of Moscow, close to historical monuments from the 17th and 18th centuries. Designed by famed architects Paul and Dave Thomas , this 18-hole course is part of a complex that includes a yacht club, an equestrian center, and a health and wellness facility. Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club is Russia’s version of a classic country club with multiple attractions.

Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club

This park is among the best in Eastern Europe and was awarded the 2014 World Golf Award as the best golf course in Russia. Located 25 miles from Moscow, it is part of a vast complex featuring an 18-hole golf course, designed by Jack Nicklaus , a polo club and a mountain ski club with four tracks. The design combines classic Scottish, Alpine, and English features in a dreamy landscape.

Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia

Less than 60 miles from Moscow, this golf course with a definite Scottish design is the only one in Russia recognized as a PGA (Professional Golfers’ Association) from Britain and Ireland. Located in an ecologically pristine area on the banks of the Volga River, the Zavidovo Golf Club embodies the spirit and appearance of the legendary Scottish golf courses. Its many springs and streams, hills, forests, swamps and lakes justify its reputation as a very demanding circuit. Last year, it entered the exclusive club of the 15 best golf courses in the world.   ■
