The name says it all — a sweeping par 5 along the Indian Ocean. Feed your shot from left to right and enjoy the vistas that define Mauritius golf at its finest. Birdie chances abound for those who dare.
Hole 5 – Mangroved Nest
(Par 3)
Wind and water meet at this scenic short hole. Allow for the right-to-left ocean breeze as you target a green protected by tidal ponds and lush mangroves — a beautiful challenge in every sense.
Hole 6 – Mystery Pond
(Par 4)
Play with the wind at your back, but tread carefully — this narrow green is closely guarded by water and bunkers. A well-placed approach is your key to par.
Hole 7 – Mango Orchard
(Par 4)
A fairway framed by fragrant mango trees and soft trade winds. Favour a solid tee shot to position yourself for a rewarding second stroke. When the breeze is behind you, opportunity awaits.
Hole 8 – Manta Ray
(Par 3)
Grace and power converge on this majestic par 3 stretching over 200 metres. Like the creature it’s named after, the hole calls for precision and smooth motion — a hybrid or fairway metal will serve you well.
Hole 9 – Lazy Burn
(Par 4)
A driveable par 4 that tempts risk-takers. A burn cuts through the fairway, demanding both courage and calculation. Play smart for an easy par — or go bold and chase an eagle.
Hole 10 – Coconut Grove
(Par 4)
The back nine begins in paradise. Short, scenic, and full of promise, this hole winds through coconut palms and offers an excellent birdie opportunity if you find the fairway.
Hole 11 – Secret Bay
(Par 4)
Precision is paramount. Find the fairway and the green comes into view — but beware of the deep bunker that guards the front. This hole rewards patience and placement over power.
Hole 12 – Bougainvillea Quietude
(Par 3)
Colourful blooms surround you as the ocean breeze adds complexity to this elegant par 3. Low, running shots will find favour here — beauty and strategy intertwine in perfect balance.
Hole 13 – Holy Hill

A true test of endurance and elevation. This long par 5 plays uphill toward a well-protected green. Reach it in three for a well-earned birdie — and take a moment to admire the sweeping view behind you.
Hole 14 – Scottish Taste
(Par 4)
A nod to golf’s origins. A dry-stone wall cuts diagonally across the fairway, forcing you to plan every shot. The setting may be tropical, but the strategy is pure links tradition.
Hole 15 – Bassin Lubine
(Par 4)
This long par-4 is framed by sweeping views of the bay and Bassin Lubine, offering beauty as well as challenge. After a solid drive, the approach demands precision into a shallow green guarded by deep front bunkers. The hole favours a high, soft-landing shot — for most golfers, a hybrid is the smart choice. If the carry feels beyond reach, the safe strategy is to treat it as a steady three-shotter.
Hole 16 – Pinnacle Point
(Par 4)
Elevated and inspiring — favour the left side off the tee for a clear view of the green. The horizon stretches endlessly ahead, offering one of the most breathtaking perspectives on the course.
Hole 17 – Turquoise Lagoon
(Par 3)
Short, striking, and unforgettable. With the lagoon glittering below, this is your chance to aim directly for the pin. A moment of calm focus leads to a well-deserved birdie.
Hole 18 – Sugar Estate Ruins
(Par 5)
Finish your round with history as your backdrop. Once home to an old sugar estate, this final hole challenges you to balance power and precision. Big hitters can chase an eagle; strategic players will find a birdie within reach.
A perfect close to an unforgettable journey — where every swing echoes with the spirit of Mauritius.
