Kings Links 18 Hole Golf Course is a traditional well established links course running parallel with the Aberdeen beachfront and close to other leisure facilities and Aberdeen Football Clubs' home ground; Pittodrie Stadium.  The course has a wide range of holes ranging from par 3 to par 5. The largest hole is the Burn a 507 yard par 5 hole and the shortest is the fishers a 182 yard par 3 hole.  The Kings Links offers the usual environmental factors expected at a Links Course with wind usually a prominent feature and don't forget those humps and bumps along the fairways!! It really is a challenge to the most experienced golfer.

The holes are equally divided between par 3 and 4 with lengths ranging from140 yards (Aulton) to 307 yards (Promenade). Please note that there is no starters box, but there is an automatic pay point at the entrance to the course.
