The Golf de Chiberta is a very prestigious links course. With its links holes running alongside the coast and the more varied tree-lined fairways, you will be challenged in a host of ways.

Chiberta (Golf de Chiberta)
A pleasure of a golf course, this top layout is listed as the 7th best course in France and is regarded by some as the best links course in the country. Designed by the legendary Tom Simpson, little has changed in the hundred years since its opening with pot bunkers, gauze bush lined fairways, dunes and ball-gathering hollows. However, the course's main defence is the wind and the arresting coastal and mountain views.
