Los Cabos Top 5 Public Golf Courses

Post author By Cabos Finest
Post date January 15, 2018
1 Comment on Los Cabos Top 5 Public Golf Courses

Cabo Real

Opened in 1993, Robert Trent Jones designed this par 71 course measuring 6,848 total yards from the tips, with complete practice facilities and Bermuda grass. A challenging course for high handicappers, Cabo Real has one of the memorable lay-outs combining ocean, desert and mountain views. It hosted Senior Slam Events in 1996 and 1999 where TV crews captured whales breaching as a back drop to the ocean holes. A recent remodel after Las Ventanas al Paraiso bought the 5th hole to build ocean front hotel villas; Robert switched the 9’s so that the 1st 9 is friendly in comparison to the demanding back 9.

Rates $140. – $240.

Desert Course Cabo del Sol

The often under-rated desert course at Cabo del Sol is an awesome course all to itself, a more playable course compared to the challenging world class ocean course. Designed by Tom Weiskopf who called it some of the best terrain for golf anywhere in the world. Cabo del Sol clubhouse is the largest in Los Cabos with a great Sunday Brunch, outdoor bar, complete pro shop, excellent practice facilities and plush golf carts with GPS computers.

7,049 yards from the tips, slope 74.2, rating 141 par 72

Palmilla Golf Club

One of the first two courses opening in Los Cabos, with 27 holes, the Arroyo and the award winning original championship Mountain Courses opened in 1993.

The front 9 Arroyo Course is a great opener especially holes 6, 7, and 8 that offer some of the best holes in Cabo. Dog legs, long carries and massive views of the Sea with centuries old Cardon Cacti, huge boganvillas and mature landscaping enhance the game.

6,839 yards from the tips, slope 138, rating 73.7

The back 9 Mountain Course is aptly named with flawless greens framed by the Sierra de la Laguna mountains.

The Ocean Course

The third 9 gives players another great option, one of the greatest par 4’s of the world. Managed by Troon Golf with full practice facilities with private lessons available.

Puerto Los Cabos Golf Club

Located within the 2,000 acre community of Puerto Los Cabos is the Nicklaus/Norman golf course. A short 10 minute drive from historic San Jose del Cabo, this composite course offers 2 contrasting styles. Etched amongst rolling hills and desert landscape with distant mountain views and up close Sea of Cortez holes.

The Mission Course is the front 9 by Norman and will become the future private course for homeowners. This 9 has over 400 ft of elevation change, flash faced bunkers and wide landing areas.

The Marina Course is yet another Nicklaus design, one of 6 in Cabo. Featuring rippling fairways, sculpted bunkers, roller coaster greens with sea and marina views. All holes of both 9’s have sweeping views, and with the all-inclusive feature you have 4 comfort stations to keep you well fed and oiled.

Rates $205-$285

Coming in at #1 is the iconic Cabo del Sol Ocean Course.

The #1 public course in Los Cabos, Golf Digest calls the Ocean Course “the best Los Cabos Golf course for experienced players”.

One of the original 2 courses both Nicklaus designed, the ocean course sets the bar for dramatic ocean front golf. Better arrive early and take advantage of the full practice facilities before stepping onto this most vulnerable course. The Bear himself calls these final holes “The best 3 finishing holes in golf”, but let us start at the front 9. From the difficult 1st hole players quickly realize this beauty is a beast. Holes 2-4 are all gorgeous and challenging leading up to the hardest par 4 in the round, the 490 yard hole 5. You then come to the ocean holes 6 and 7, both are par 3’s. After your front 9 grab some fish tacos, you will need the energy as you play the best 9 in Cabo.

Words can’t really describe the back 9 of the ocean course. Why not book and flight down and see for yourself? The weather is always great and you will congratulate yourself for taking care of your need to play one of the world’s best courses.
