Royal Westmoreland boasts a par 72, 7045 yard championship course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jnr. Set in a lush tropical landscape and calling for every club in your bag, it’s consistently rated as one of the top courses in the Caribbean. The tricky greens, ocean views from every hole, inviting halfway house and an amusing audience of resident monkeys place this course among the world’s best.
One of the newest championship golf courses in the Caribbean, opened in late 2009, Apes Hill Club enjoys a prime location at almost 1000 feet above sea level in the centre of Barbados. With lush grassland, coral stone quarries, wooded ravines and sparkling lakes, the course is as much in accord with its natural surroundings as it is an exciting challenge for golfers.
Barbados Golf Club, located at Durants in the southern parish of Christ Church, has become the soul of golfing in Barbados for local players as well as hotel guests and visitors cruising through the Caribbean. The course was approved and sanctioned by the PGA European Tour to host a PGA Seniors Tournament in 2003 and it has also hosted the Barbados Open on several occasions.
