Blue
Canyon Country Club
at
the northern end of Phuket, is recognized as being the most
exclusive golfing establishment in the region. It is surrounded by
freshwater lakes and has facilities to match any of the world's
leading golf resorts.
Host to the Johnnie Walker Classic in 1998, this championship
course features many natural hazards, multiple tees, narrow
landing areas, rolling fairways and well guarded greens. Signature
hole number 13 the 'Canyon' and the 'Island' par three 14th are
memorable. At the 13th a huge drive is needed to clear the
'Canyon' and at 14, a par three, players hit from an elevated tee
and must hit a perfect tee shot in order to land on the island
green. The huge and opulent clubhouse affords magnificent view of
the golf course and has every facility. |

Banyan
Tree Club and Dusit Laguna
A
Championship 18-hole golf course located within the Laguna
Development, this par 71 layout offers sweeping views of the
Andaman Sea and is cradled within a surrounding mountain range.
Carved out of the existing sand hills, the par 36 front nine
meanders through a once flourishing coconut plantation. Players
must be exact on their tee shots, as water comes into play on five
holes. The back nine features water on eight holes. Of the three
par threes, the 11th hole, though only 137 yards from the men's
tee, will leave a lasting impression. The back to back par fives
at the 17th and 18th create an unusual finish. The clubhouse and
hotel facilities are of the highest standard.

Phuket
Country Club
Set
on undulating terrain, created from a former tin mine, every hole
of the first 18-hole layout provides a different playing
experience. The 557-yard, par-5, 10th hole on the Old Course is
one of the most unusual holes. A dog-leg right that snakes around
an enormous lake, the pin is reachable in one! To achieve it, one
must aim 90 degrees right of the fairway and be able to carry the
shot 240 yards over water. The Country Club Course is a nine-hole
layout for low-handicap golfers. This course is not easy as
wayward shorts are penalised either by the water hazards or OBs.

Loch
Palm Golf Club Phuket
Designed
by Thailand's foremost golf architect, Dr. Sukitti Klangvisai,
golfers playing here are in for an unusual experience. Nestled
within majestic hills covered by dense vegetation, golfers get to
play against a scenic backdrop enhanced by cooling breezes. The
fairways surround the 48-acre Crystal Lake and its 12-acre sister
lake. Great accuracy is called for from the tee, particularly on
the first, ninth, tenth, twelfth and fourteenth, which all dog-leg
around the lakeside. The course is only about eight kilometers
from Phuket city, so there is no shortage of accommodations. |

 Dino
Park
Dino Park offers the opportunity to play mini golf within a
unique environment.
The mini golf course is 18 holes and features authentic scale
replicas of prehistoric creatures, each hole blending with the
theme and offering a different and exciting view of the
prehistoric world. Players will play beside a primeval swamp, in a
lava cave, beside a moving and roaring Tyrannosaurus Rex, under a
12 meter waterfall and beneath an erupting volcano - all with
special lighting and sound effects. The mini golf has a capacity
of 60 pax on one round of about 40 minutes. Clients who don’t wish
to play golf can still enjoy the excitement of Dino Park while
taking photos for a lasting memory of their holiday. |
