The course & its setting
Located at an altitude of 300 meters, north of the Saint-Gilles ravine - a striking element of the landscape and a real strategic challenge on several holes - the course offers two very distinct atmospheres between the outward and return journeys.
The first nine holes wind in the heart of dense vegetation, among century-old eucalyptus trees, and require a great precision, particularly during the ascent to hole no. 5, the furthest from the Club House.
A unique environment
The return, for its part, is characterized by spectacular panoramas over the Indian Ocean. Although the vegetation is sparser, the trees bordering the rough as well as the gullies - like the one to be crossed at hole no. 13 - bring their share of tactical challenges.
The Golf du Bassin Bleu is a lively tropical course, lush during the wet season thanks to its majestic flamboyant trees, and more arid in the dry period.
Accessible all year year-round, this course is a real pleasure to play in an exceptional natural setting, which will not fail to appeal to enthusiasts and amateurs alike.
