Par Five |
Stroke 11 |
| A 100 metre walk, gently downhill from the clubhouse leads to the first tee. In the distance can be seen the 1st Green, uphill from the fairway. This hole can be tough against the wind from the sea, or, reachable in two with a following wind. The green is well bunkered and has a sloping putting surface. A wide and welcoming fairway sets you up for the challenges ahead. Take your time and savour the journey. |

Par Three |
Stroke 15 |
| An uphill walk from the 1st green, through a tunnel of coastal bush opens out at the 2nd Tee atop a ridge. Way below is the striking vista of the 2nd green and the sea behind. One of the feature holes of the course and remembered by all who play it. The green is surrounded by five bunkers and appears a postage stamp from afar. |

Par Five |
Stroke 9 |
| A narrow valley fairway with bush on either side. Like the first, the wind plays an important role. A tiger against, but with….a birdie beckons. Beautiful turf and a feeling of peace away from the world. |

Par Four |
Stroke 13 |
| An unusual short par four with a humpback fairway. It is uphill all the way for 250 metres without a view of the green. Once over the brow of the hill its then sharply downhill to the green. If you have not reached the hilltop with your drive, it will be a blind second shot. If your straight drive gets over the hilltop it may then roll right down to the green. Bush on both sides from tee to green. A visually entertaining hole with sea views from behind and in front. |
