Just minutes from the top hotels of Puerto Vallarta you will find the Marina Vallarta Club de Golf. Designed by renowned course architect Joe Finger, Marina Vallarta offers golfers a wonderfully strategic golf experience where you mind will be put to the test as much as your golf game. The successful golfer at Marina Vallarta will be the one that takes advantages of opportunities when they present themselves but does not try to simply go out and bend the course to their will.
The precision demands of Joe Finger’s brand of golf are no more obvious than at Marina Vallarta’s 376-yard par-four eleventh hole. Not an overly long hole, this par four is all about control and strategy since it is dominated by water. From the intermediate and forward tees the hole is strictly on terra firma but from the back tees golfers will be faced with a 200 yard carry over water that must then not run more than 50 yards without some kind of a draw or you will be left in the trees with no angle at the green. Once there it is a controlled mid or short iron to a green that slopes away from you and is protected by water on three sides. Chunk a shot or blast it long and you ball will be going for a swim. Execute two decent shots and you will be on the dance floor with a great shot at par or better, secure in the knowledge that you took one of the best that Marina Vallarta could throw at you!
Due to its numerous tee boxes and varying landing areas, golfers of all levels are sure to enjoy Marina Vallarta. It is a wonderful golfing oasis just minutes from your hotel lobby. This year be sure to enjoy the strategic demands of a great course. Come play Marina Vallarta with BC Golf Safaris.
