Golf de l'Amirauté (Golf de l'Amiraute)
Situated just five minutes from Deauville, this 6,635 yard Par 73 championship course, opened in 1992, is an excellent test of golf, in the style of a Florida marshland layout. The course features some interesting touches, including seven floodlit holes, enabling play well into the night. 31 ornamental statues also line the course, giving l'Amirauté a unique and mystical atmosphere. As you would expect, the course is also home to many water hazards and bunkering, leading to some spectacular looking holes. The panoramic restaurant is also perfect for large parties and relaxing in front of the 18th green with a cold drink.
Accommodation
The 3* modern Hôtel de L’Amirauté is only 10 minutes drive from the course. There are other hotels you can choose including the 4* Hôtel du Golf Barrière.
