Miramar Links

The Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway arrived in Miramar in 1911 and it was that company which subsequently built a hotel and golf course outside the city, engaging a couple of Jersey golf professionals (Aubrey and Percy Boomer) to lay out an 18-hole course on a 150-acre sandy-soiled site next to the Atlantic coastline. 

Today, the course measures 6,335 yards from the back markers, playing to a par of 73, with back-to-back par fives at the 5th and 6th. Holes are arranged as two returning nines, both of which conclude in front of a clubhouse located close to the Interbalnearia Route 11 highway in the southeast corner of the coastal property.

Highlight holes include the long par four 1st (rated stroke index 1 so a tough start here) with out of bounds to the right of the fairway; the heavily bunkered par three 7th (positioned close to the main road); the longest of the par fives at the 15th (featuring a large bunker immediately in front of the green); and the slightly right doglegging 18th which plays to a lightly bunkered home green.
