Located between Arcachon and Bordeaux, this magnificent 18 hole course was designed by the superb Alain Prat. Using a lot of good sense he has avoided any excessive difficulties and the layout only penalizes the players who take one risk too many. The flat terrain has been slightly graded for greater relief, and the sandy sub-soil is ideal for this golf course. It winds its way pleasantly through pine trees and heather, with playing difficulties carefully gauged to avoid scaring the lesser player. Aside from the few water hazards the main problems on Gujan Mestras Golf Course are the bunkers and trees, which generally speaking afford easy access to the greens. Beginners will probably find the going a little harder when dealing with some of the more well protected holes. You can easily play here all year, as the winters are mild. The ground withstands all weathers, and maintenance has been considerably improved.
An internationally renowned course which is both a severe test of golfing skills and a pleasure on the eye. Like some of the famous Florida courses, Gujan makes the most of its natural environment of pine forest and lakes, to which have been added bunkers of brilliant white sand.
