Los Cabos Golf

Cabo San Lucas is a resort destination worthy of bringing your own set of clubs to enjoy excellent upscale golf.  Cabo golf is not cheap.  However, if you are willing to splurge for some great golf and incredible views of the pacific ocean you may find it well worth the price especially if you don't get down to Cabo very often.

Cabo Del Sol Ocean Course

The most stunning course I had the fortune to play was Cabo Del Sol's ocean course.  At par 72 and 7,047 yards from the tips this course will provide plenty of challenge for the amateur golfer and pro golfer.  Cabo Del Sol was a former site of the Senior's Skins competition several years ago.  The icing on the cake with this course is the par 3 17th that forces a carry over the beach and pacific ocean to an elevated green surrounded by boulders.  My shot unfortunately hit a boulder and bounced 30 feet in the air back into the water after just landing short of the green.  With a view like this I could have cared less about my score.  Below is a view of the 17th on the ocean course.  For more information about Cabo Del Sol please visit their website at http://www.cabodelsol.com/content/golf.html.

Palmilla Golf Club Ocean Course

Another course worth the price is Palmilla Golf Club.  Palmilla is a Troon course and its ocean course at par 72 6,771 yards is not quite as long as Cabo Del Sol's ocean course but still provides the same stunning views of Sea of Cortez ocean panorama.  For those looking to get some high quality golf in during your trip to Los Cabos play these two course, take plenty of pictures and savor the memories.  Below are some photos from the Palmilla ocean course.

Well hopefully this helps those of you who have never been down to Los Cabos and are looking for a great place to go and play some tropical resort style golf.  There are obviously a few more than just these two courses in Cabo so you will have a decent selection to choose from unlike some other resort destinations in the Caribbean and Mexico.  For more information on Palmilla golf course please visit their website at http://www.palmillagc.com/index.php.
