Course Details

Course Name: The 18 Hole Holes: 18 Yardage: 6687 SSS: 73

Starts with a 200 yard par 3 with a green surrounded by 9 bunkers before wending its way through the sand dunes with no two holes being alike. The signature hole is the 16th, 'Gumbleys' which has a sleepered sand dune guarded by two deep bunkers which catch poor second shots on this par 5 that normally plays in to the prevailing wind. .
