This amazing place has hosted 16 Open Championships and 11 Amateur Championships. Its size is impressing - 117-acre largeness surrounded by walls with the length of 7250 yards. The biggest challenge here is the 9th hole, as the pressure of the wind is really hard. But the endless green hills and the bright blue sky will make you forget every discomfort.

The resort is unique when we talk about extreme experiences. The 19th hole of the course is accessible only by a helicopter and provides a dizzying atmosphere because it is placed at 1,200 feet altitude. Are you bold enough to play there?!

This place is not for everyone. It is located near to an active volcano that looms in a short distance. The last time it erupted was in 2013…but the exclusive landscape with million years old volcanic rocks makes the golf course one of the most glamorous around the world.

If I am not able to awake the passion in golf with this short list, I hope to impress you with the amazing green areas. Or at least to inspire you to seek specialists in detailed lawn care, which could make your yard an exotic and fresh place for tranquility and relaxation.
