Phuket Country Club is the first champion standard
golf course with 18 holes in Phuket island. It is located in the
distance of 12 minutes drive from Phuket town.
There are two courses with 27 holes in total.
OLD COURSE provides a strenuous resort
18-hole, 6483 yards, par 72 golf game.
Hole #10, 557 yards par 5, is one of the most unusual hole you
will find anywhere; a dog-leg right that snakes around an enormous
lake and is reachable in one! To achieve it, you must aim 90 degree
right of the fairway - and be able to carry your drive 240 yards
over the water. See layout hole #10 diagram.The course is fun and
friendly. Set in a valley, the fairways meandering through the
hills and limestone cliffs.
You will traverse 3 distinct environments:- six holes in undulating hills,
six holes on the level and six holes through landscape forest.It is generally
not humiliating or intimidating (depending on your temperament, of course!).
Wayward shots are not too severely penalized.Although high handicappers
have the best round of their lives and keep coming back for more, the
low handicap golfers still find the course quite a challenge.

COUNTRY CLUB COURSE, is a challenging 3575 yards
(championship tee) par 37, 9-hole course, particularly suitable
for the low handicap golfer. The picturesque beauty of the scenery
and layout, somewhat softens the difficulty of the course. Watch
out for those wayward shots; all are penalized either landing in
water or out-of-bounds.
However, with five tee-off boxes at each hole, you have a choice
of making it less of an ordeal. The distinct feature is water-
water comes into play 90% of the time. Black swans glide amongst
the water lilies taking very little heed of your slices!
(Hint: high handicap golfers, remember to purchase a few dozen
second hand balls from the Pro Shop before tee off! You just might
need a few
