LONDON, 18 June 2018: Stunning natural surroundings, year-round sunshine, welcoming hospitality and world-class golf courses make the Seychelles a golfer's dream. With the island of Praslin hosting the grand finale of the MCB Championship Tour from 14 to 16 December, more than ever do golfers have a reason to visit. Find out about two courses with a view that cannot be missed!

The Lemuria Championship Golf Course

Winding along 6,105 yards of dazzling ocean coastline, the Constance Lemuria Resort boasts a championship par 70 18-hole golf course. The course has been carefully crafted through tropical woodland and has amazing views of three golden beaches along immaculately terraced greens.

Due to the elevated tees, water hazards and wide fairway, the course is considered a challenge for golfers at all levels. Particularly extraordinary is the 15th hole, featuring a 54-yard drop to the green in the valley below from the men's tee, making it extremely difficult to land the ball on the green.

Being a five-star resort facility, Lemuria has a spa and wellness centre, multiple outstanding restaurants and bars. Golf lessons and many other activities are also offered.

Golfers regard Lemuria as the perfect golf course of Seychelles. A five-minute drive from Praslin Airport, it's certainly worth a day trip from any of Seychelles' islands

The Seychelles Golf Club

Just a 10-minute drive from the Seychelles International Airport lies The Seychelles Golf Club, formerly Le Reef Hotel and Golf Club. As you're drawn in by coconut palms, verdant hills and mangrove marsh, you could easily forget you have come here to play. 

The Golf Club is the only golf course on the island of Mahé and is open all year round. It is 4,992 yards with nine holes at par 68 and a challenging course, partly due to its lack of roll. 

With all the amenities you could want, including a clubhouse with a bar, a restaurant, tennis courts and a swimming pool, it may prove difficult to ever leave the course. Visitors are also welcome to participate in the sponsored competitions. 

The Seychelles Golf Club is part of a wildlife sanctuary, so rare migratory birds are regularly seen. But watch out for the sneaky red crabs that live in some of the hazards as they like to run away with your golf balls.
