SPORTS - GOLF IN MAURITIUS
Mauritius is one of the world’s ultimate island paradise destinations. This beautiful island has spectacular volcanic formations, covered with tropical rainforests, and this picturesque landscape is framed by white sandy beaches of unfathomable beauty whose shores are caressed by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Like many other paradise islands, Mauritius offers a range of top-class hotels set on gorgeous tropical beaches.
What some people may be surprised to learn is that it is also the perfect place to combine golf with tropical island luxury. Yes, this paradise island is pretty well off when it comes to golf courses, the catalyst having been the creation in 1994 of Belle Mare Plage in the East of the island.

18-HOLE GOLF COURSES

 |
Belle Mare Plage Golf Courses
The two hotels Constance championship golf courses (The Legend & The Links) are of international standard. Each 18 holes is a real challenge for professional and amateurs alike, recognised by the PGA and various other federations, these courses were conceived to annually host a number of international competitions including the Mauritius Open. |

The Legend (Belle Mare Plage Hotel)
'The Legend', the first of its kind in Mauritius, designed by South African champion, Hugh Baiocchi, is the crowning achievement of Constance Belle Mare Plage The Resort, located along one of the most superb beaches on the island.
Each of the 18 holes has distinctive characteristics. Superb fairways are laid in the heart of an indigenous forest, culminating in brand new greens, built to USPGA specifications. In our constant effort to provide the perfect golfing location, all 18 greens have been rebuilt using Tif Dwarf grasses to ensure a perfect surface. Time has also been taken to enhance the natural beauty of a site originally used to breed deer. Teeing off from the 17th hole (par 3) is a feast for the eyes and a test for the nerves.

The Links Golf (Belle Mare Plage Hotel)
The second Belle Mare Plage The Resort Championship Golf Course, designed by Rodney Wright and Peter Allis opened in November 2002. This 18-hole Links course was conceived as a result of the success and demands encountered by Hotels Constance's first course, 'The Legend'. Nestled beneath the clubhouse, which faces the setting sun, this lovely course measures 5,942 m and has a par of 71.
Equipped with a practice fairway, this 18-hole course is set in a location which seems to have been naturally created for the purpose.

 |
Le Touessrok Golf Course (Le Touessrok Resort)
Le Touessrok Golf Course is across the water form the resort mainland on its own beautiful island, Ile aux Cerfs - 'island of deer'. The deer have gone, and what has been created here has been described as the 'wonder of the game'. |
Bernhard Langer designed the 18 hole, par 72 championship course to challenge advanced players, while remaining exciting and playable for recreational golfers.
This is achieved with four sets of tee decks for each hole, so the angles of attack and approach vary. There is a generous provision of fairway where appropriate. The greens are mainly small and undulating, requiring precise approach shots.

 |
Le Golf du Château (Le Telfair Golf & Spa Resort & Héritage Golf & Spa Resort)
Héritage Golf & Spa Resort & Le Telfair Golf & Spa Resort share the usage of the course, Golf du Château. This 18-hole championship golf course was designed by Matkovich & Hayes, one of the leading golf course landscapers and designers in South Africa. |
The course has receptive greens and wide undulating fairways, which cut through the sugar cane fields, against a backdrop of volcanic mountains and breathtaking views of the ocean.
Technically challenging features include strategically placed bunkers, tricky elevations, water hazards and blind greens. Two rivers, Citronniers and St Martin, cross the fairways at unexpected places!
While the course has been designed to challenge advanced players, it will also be enjoyed by recreational golfers. Five sets of tees are provided for each hole, with generous fairway provision, where necessary. Golfers can enjoy a casual lunch or more formal dinner at the estate’s original homestead, the Château de Bel Ombre, which has been integrated into the course. The Clubhouse itself also serves light lunches and drinks.
A concept unique to Le Golf du Château is its 9-hole par 3 course which offers beginner golfers a chance to try out golf or those more experienced, a chance to practice their “short” game. For golfers who need some fine tuning, there is a PGA run state-of-the-art golf academy and driving range, with top- rate instruction available. Those needing new clubs will find them at the Pro Shop.

Tamarina
Carved into the rugged south-west savannah land coast of Mauritius, between mountain and sea, Tamarina Golf, Spa and Beach Club is the first residential golf estate on the island. |
Tamarina 18-hole Championship Golf Course is unmatched by its layout, location and beauty. This Par 72 challenging course undulates over 43 hectares of rugged savannah land framed with mature trees and crossed by the Rempart River. The landscaping of holes and surrounds was specially designed by Rodney Wright to give spectacular views of Mount Rempart and the towering mountain range.
Tamarina Golf Club also has a Golf Academy and a clubhouse with a Pro Shop, a bar and a restaurant.
Playing 6886 metres from the Professional tees, the course is laid out with standard four par 3’s and four par 5’s with remaining holes as par 4’s. Each hole offers five different teeing options, catering for all level of golfers: Professional, Championship, Club, Senior/Ladies Championship and Ladies tees. A fantastic 300-metre practice range is also provided with large putting greens and chipping and bunker facilities.
Tamarina greens are according to US specification: they are made of a special imported Ultradwarf Bermuda grass called "Champion" which is used successfully in similar climates in Texas. Fairways and tees are Tif Green 328 Bermuda grass that is used on greens elsewhere in the world. Greens are irrigated with a state of the art "Rainbird" system backed up and supplied by a "Watertronics" pump system installed on the golf course. The landscaping grasses include Fataque, Citronella, Red Grass, Sikine, Vetiver and Lemon Grass.
Due to the climate and the nature of the terrain, golfers are encouraged to use golf carts throughout the course (golf carts are at an additional charge). Over 6km of concrete golf cart paths have been designed for the comfort of the golfer and a halfway snack House is found between the 9th and 10th holes for refreshments.
Our team welcomes you at the modern clubhouse with Pro Shop, bar and the restaurant Le Dix-Neuf and is at your service to cater for your needs.

The Golf Academy offers instruction and private lessons, and the Clubhouse is equipped to enhance any golfer's game. The club also features a driving range, putting green and Pro Shop. Tee times are available from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm daily. One-hour golf clinics are offered daily on a complimentary basis to Resort guests.

 |
Mauritius Gymkhana Golf Club
A little slice of paradise, located in the centre of the Island, the Mauritius Gymkhana Golf Club is said to be the oldest golf course in the southern hemisphere and apparently the fourth oldest in the world. While it may not feature all the complexities of modern courses, it is perfectly maintained and offers a good mix of hazards with plenty of trees and large bunkers. This 18-hole course is a par 68 and is approximately 4870 metres long. |

9-HOLE GOLF COURSES

 |

 |
Maritim
The Maritim hosts a 9-hole Par 29 golf course designed by the Australian Company, Graham Marsh Golf Design and Adam Mohun, Maritim Mauritius’ Golf Pro. |
The Maritim Golf Course is rather a unique combination of 9-holes par 29. Each hole can be played from two different tees and a tremendous variety in length elevation and angle is achieved by this two-tee concept. There is also a driving range and putting green available for you to hone your skills when you are not on the fairways. The Golf Pro is available for individual lessons, beginners and advanced courses.

 |
Shandrani Golf Course
Situated on a 50-hectare private peninsula on a site of unrivalled beauty and overlooking the Blue Bay lagoon, the Shandrani 9-hole Mashi course will undoubtedly provide stimulating moments to both golfers and non-golfers. |
Do you want to improve your short game? If so, Shandrani 9-hole golf course is perfect for you. Golf at Shandrani is completely free (for Shandrani hotel guests) with complimentary collective lessons included. Par 29, the course is a “Pitch and and Putt” course which runs alongside the lagoon. With the “tee-off” just 100 metres from the Reception and the beach, this course is both stimulating and fun.
