Legend Da Nang Golf Resort – Norman Course
Description
Set along Vietnam’s stunning central coast, the Norman Course at Legend Da Nang Golf Resort offers a world-class links-style golf experience unlike any other in Southeast Asia. Formerly known as BRG Da Nang Golf Resort, this coastal gem has been rebranded to reflect its legendary design heritage and elevated resort offerings.
Designed by golf legend Greg Norman, the Norman Course was the first true links-style course in Vietnam, opening in 2010 to international acclaim. The course runs parallel to the East Sea and is bordered by iconic landmarks like the Marble Mountains, delivering a round of golf that is as scenic as it is strategic.
Just 20 minutes from Da Nang International Airport and surrounded by premium beachfront Resorts, Legend Da Nang Golf Resort is the perfect destination for golfers looking to combine championship play with leisure and luxury.
Course Layout & Design
The Norman Course is an 18-hole, par-72 championship layout stretching over 7,160 yards (6,548 meters). Modeled after the windswept links of Scotland and Ireland, it features natural sandy soil, rugged bunkering, firm fairways, and sweeping coastal winds that challenge golfers of all levels.
The layout follows the terrain’s natural contours, minimizing environmental disruption and embracing the wild beauty of its seaside setting. Native grasses, sandy waste areas, and minimal water hazards add to the course’s authentic links feel.
Signature holes include:
-
Hole 5 (Par 4): A short and driveable hole with strategic bunkering and a narrow green — risk-reward at its finest.
-
Hole 11 (Par 3): Plays directly toward the sea with swirling winds, deep bunkers, and a raised green.
-
Hole 16 (Par 5): A long closing stretch with split fairways and heavy dunes that reward bold shot-making.
