Ambitious plans were in place for the site to become a great seaplane airport but when that project was abandoned, attention turned to transforming the flat, barren property into a golfing complex, necessitating the excavation of several lakes to raise the level of the landscape and provide fill for contouring the holes.
It’s no surprise therefore to learn that water hazards appear prominently at several holes on the (3056-metre, par 35) Bianco and the (3,361-metre, par 37) Blu.

The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
