The course & its setting
Palmer himself said: “I designed the first nine holes, but God designed the last nine. »And indeed, the return winds its way through spectacular natural dunes, sculpted by wind and time, offering a challenge as intense as it is grandiose.
A unique environment
The outward route, for its part, overlooks the steep cliffs where the sea is never far away, ready to punish inaccuracies, especially when the wind gets involved. This exceptional links wonderfully combines wild beauty and golfing standards.
An unforgettable course, where each shot is played against the immensity of the Atlantic, in a setting as powerful as it is poetic.
