Four Seasons Punta Mita golf course

Punta Mita, Banderas Bay, Nayarit. The Four Seasons Punta Mita Golf Course features a challenging 19th hole on a beach shore. It's a 7,014-yard Jack Nicklaus Signature course spread over 200 acres and takes full advantage of its location on the Punta Mita peninsula. Eight holes border either the Pacific Ocean or Banderas Bay, and all holes offer ocean views. When practicing golf in Punta Mita, you will enjoy white coral sand beaches, the Sierra Madre Mountains, the tropical landscape of palms and flowering trees that add to the pleasure of playing this challenging course. Five sets of tee boxes offers play from 5037 yards to 7014 yards, making the course enjoyable for both beginners and seasoned golfers. Fairways are wide and open, with targeted greens. The presence of constant ocean breezes offers golfers both a challenge and a pleasant climate in which to play year-round. The signature island hole, 3B, is a par 3 hole with an ocean side tee overlooking the beach, and a green situated on an idyllic natural island 194 yards away. Driving the ball across the Pacific Ocean is a unique experience, as is getting over to the green to putt. At low tide, you can walk along a connecting rocky pathway over shallow waters. As the tide moves in, a staff member will shuttle you back and forth in an amphibious version of a golf cart. The hole is known as the "Tail of the Whale", because when seen from the air, it resembles the shape of the tail of the Humpbacks that frequent the offshore waters of Punta Mita during winter months. As an alternative, 3A does not require you to hit across the ocean but it does offer an equally challenging marshy area to hit across the green. The clubhouse offers complete food and beverage services, locker facilities, and a Pro Shop with equipment rentals, including graphite Callaway clubs. The Four Seasons Punta Mita Golf Course is private, open only to Four Seasons Resort guests and Resort Club Members. In addition to the course itself, there is also a striking double-ended driving range, 370 yards deep. Golf in Punta Mita is always fun and challenging.
