Belle Mare Plage Golf Club

Belle Mare Plage Golf Club is home to two, 18 hole golf courses in Mauritius. The Legend Course is only open to guests of the Constance Belle Mare Plage Hotel but the Links Course is open to non residents in low season. Both of the courses provide a different test with the wider parkland layout of the Legend Course and the more undulating Links course.

Legend Course at Belle Mare Plage
Opened in 1994 the Legend course has superb fairways, and each of the holes its own distinctive characteristics. Set in the heart of an indigenous forest originally used to breed deers, the parkland-style course embraces the natural beauty of its surroundings. It is relatively flat with tree lined fairways and numerous water hazards.  The Legend course is by far the tighter of the two, and the challenging layout has played host to the professionals of the European Seniors Tour.

The 506m, par 5, 4th hole is the longest hole on the course with water flanking both sides of the fairway. The signature 17th hole (par 3) is a test of nerves, as you hit your tee shot across the corner of the lagoon to the green.

Links Course at Belle Mare Plage
Located a short distance from the Constance Belle Mare Plage Resort, the Links course is based on two challenging and natural 9 hole loops making a par 70, 5091m course off the men’s club tees. Called the Links due to its undulating fairways, this well maintained and cleverly sculpted layout is more parkland in nature, with little of the links style that you would associate with a traditional coastal layout found in Scotland. The fairways are mostly tree lined but occasionally opens out to give your tee shots a little more lee way. Tight sloping fairways, rocky out crops and several blind tee shots are included in the course defences. On some fairways small rocky ravines cut across the course and if you are wayward with your shots, be careful to examine the ground underneath the vegetation before you commit your prized clubs to extracting the ball.

The back 9 starts with the longest hole on the course, a 461m (mens club tees) par 5, but this is the only one on the back 9. However there is an abundance of small lakes and ponds on the tighter back loop as opposed to the front 9 which only has one hole where water comes into play.
