Is Mauritius good for golf?
In recent years golf on this tropical island has really taken off with the number of quality golf courses being truly remarkable. Despite housing mostly modern golf courses, Mauritius has a very old golf culture with its first course dating back to 1902.
Top Mauritius golf courses include Heritage Awali Golf Club and the famous Anahita Golf Club, as designed by South-African golf legend Ernie Els. Ile aux Cerfs is also a tremendous course designed by another golfing great Bernhard Langer, who set out to create a 'golfing experience that truly arouses all the senses'. Set in a former hunting preserve, the Legend Course at Constance Belle Mare Plage is another one of Mauritius’ finest courses.
The enthusiasm for the sport exhibited by the locals is truly something special and golfers will be spoilt rotten by the tremendous hospitality shown in Mauritius.
