Mossel Bay Golf Course, 17th Avenue, Mossel Bay, Garden Route, South Africa / The 18-hole links course has recently been remodeled and upgraded and is getting rave reviews. The golf club is situated above a peninsular that juts out into the Indian Ocean with terrain that is densely vegetated and undulating. 

THE COURSE
An excellent hole on the front nine is number 4 which is a 140-metre par-three which lies on a slope. The 12th (163 metres) is another good short hole with sweeping views of the sea. Both the tee shot and the approach at the short (261 metres) but tricky par-four 18th are 'blind', which means that the golfer cannot see the target as he or she is busy lining up the shot. 

 

Mossel Bay is a pleasant course which is also hilly. The course is invariably in good condition and is mostly green all year round. The climate is Mediterranean with prevailing south easterly winds in summer and north westerly winds in winter. Kikuyu tees and fairways complete the course and ensure the golfer of a wonderful experience where you can see the sea from every tee.
