Best Golf Courses in Mauritius

Mauritius is located in the Indian Ocean, about 800 km east of Madagascar and is a volcanic island known for the human warmth of its multicultural population, white beaches and luxury hotels. Thanks to the tropical climate, temperatures rarely drop below 22°C along the coast even during the cooler seasons (particularly from May to September), making Mauritius the perfect destination for a trip at any time of the year. The island is also the ideal destination for golf lovers, in fact many passionate golfers go to Mauritius to combine their holiday with their favorite sport in a perfect setting: the green of the lush vegetation on one side and the blue of the ocean on the other. 

 

Mauritius is an island of modest size, but at the same time it is a land of great firsts. In fact, in addition to hosting two UNESCO World Heritage sites, the Pearl of the Indian Ocean is the third country in the world to have been introduced to the sport of golf  since 1844 and, since then, the tradition has remained and the island now has ten eighteen-hole golf courses and three nine-hole golf courses. Below are some golf clubs where you can play golf in Mauritius immersed in the beauty of nature.

 

 

Ile Aux Cerfs Golf Club: On the picturesque Ile des Cerfs there is a 19-hole golf course that covers 38 hectares. It was designed by Bernhard Langer and can only be reached by boat via a special "golf boat shuttle" or by a scenic helicopter ride. 

 

 

Paradis Golf Club: Located on the iconic Le Morne peninsula, this 18-hole course offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The resort, in addition to boasting spectacular scenery, has its own golf Academy and is also designed for services related to golfer's relaxation. 

 

Anahita Golf: Positioned between the sea and the hinterland, this 18-hole golf course designed by Ernie Els in 2008 is truly extraordinary and features six oceanfront holes, culminating in a final course that offers one of the most spectacular views in the world. 

 

Avalon Golf Estate: 250 acres housing an 18-hole golf course designed by Peter Matkovich. The breathtaking views and expanses of tea plantations certainly contribute to making this location unique. The sense of peace and freedom is at home in Avalon.
