The course & its setting
This unique course is distinguished by its technical and varied layout, offering a stimulating challenge to golfers of all levels. With more than 122 strategically placed bunkers, each hole requires precision and strategy. The originality of the course is reinforced by the spectacular crossing of a railway line, adding a touch of authenticity and character.
Exceptional natural environment, the terrain blends harmoniously into lush tropical vegetation, dominated by a vast forest of mangroves which protects the fragile ecosystem of the surrounding area. More than 25 lakes punctuate the course, creating aquatic obstacles that are both aesthetic and technical, while providing a calming and photogenic setting.
A unique environment
Vibrate on hole n°9 - signature hole of the course - a spectacular PAR 3 with an island green, directly inspired by the celèvre 17th hole of the TPC Sawgrass.
This course is much more than a simple golf course: it is an immersion in the heart of a preserved tropical landscape, where nature and sport combine for an unforgettable experience !
