Macau Golf and Country Club
Located on the serene hills of Coloane Island, Macau Golf and Country Club is the region’s premier seaside golf destination. Overlooking the South China Sea, this 18-hole championship course offers a rare blend of ocean views, challenging play, and resort-style comfort just minutes from Macau’s bustling casinos. Whether you're a casual golfer visiting the city or a seasoned player attending an event, this club delivers an unforgettable coastal golf experience.
Opened in 1993 and designed by the Gary Player Design Group, the course meanders through coastal ridges, manicured terrain, and breezy plateaus. It has hosted the Macau Open (Asian Tour) and numerous corporate Pro-Ams, thanks to its consistent conditions, dramatic scenery, and elegant hospitality. The location—on Coloane’s southern coastline—offers golfers a tranquil escape from the glitter of Cotai Strip while still being easily accessible.
Course Layout & Design
The par-72 layout stretches 6,490 meters (7,100 yards) from the back tees. The front nine plays inland through palm-lined fairways and sculpted bunkers, while the back nine opens up dramatically toward the sea, featuring coastal winds and panoramic views. Tight landing zones, tricky approach angles, and swift greens demand a disciplined round, especially in breezy conditions. Ocean vistas and shifting light make each hole visually distinctive.
Signature holes include:
- Hole 2 – A dogleg-right par-4 hugging the coastline, with a narrow approach to a sloping green above the sea.
- Hole 12 – A picturesque par-3 with an elevated tee, requiring a bold carry over water into a peninsula green.
- Hole 18 – A strong finishing hole that plays slightly uphill toward the clubhouse, with bunkers guarding both landing zones.
