FLC Golf Links Sam Son
Nestled along the windswept coastline of Thanh Hoa Province, FLC Golf Links Sam Son is a visually dramatic 18-hole championship course designed by Nicklaus Design. Part of the expansive FLC Sam Son Beach & Golf Resort, this links-style layout brings the feel of traditional Scottish golf to Vietnam’s north-central region, with rolling dunes, sea breezes, and panoramic ocean views at nearly every turn.
Opened in 2015, the course was created with minimal earth movement to preserve the natural dune formations and enhance the challenge posed by coastal wind conditions. The resort includes luxury beachfront villas, an international-standard hotel, a convention center, and full recreation facilities, making it an ideal destination for both golf and leisure.
Course Layout & Design
Designed to emulate the classic links courses of the UK and Ireland, FLC Sam Son features undulating fairways, large strategic bunkers, natural fescue grasses, and firm playing surfaces. The layout emphasizes ground game strategy, demanding creativity and control when playing in changing wind conditions.
Playing to a par 72 and measuring over 7,200 yards, the course is a stern yet fair test of golf. The front nine navigates dunes and inland lakes, while the back nine opens toward the coastline, offering stunning views of the Gulf of Tonkin.
Signature Holes Include:
-
Hole 5 (Par 3): A gorgeous one-shotter surrounded by bunkers, wind, and native grasses—club selection is key.
-
Hole 11 (Par 5): A long sweeping hole along a ridge that rewards precision over power.
-
Hole 17 (Par 4): A coastal classic with views of the beach and a narrow fairway flanked by trouble on both sides.
