Built in 1978
by Robert Trent Jones Jr.,
this par-71 layout on 64 hectares is situated on the
headlands overlooking a beautiful bay. The golf course
affords magnificent vistas. The course is laid out on
rolling terrain which is perfectly contoured for dramatic
golf shots. The fairways and the greens are designed between
and across the rolls and folds of the land creating a
variety of challenges. There are many bunkers and sloping
greens planted with Tifton grass. The course is dotted by
sparkling lakes and an abundance of indigenous and exotic
trees.
