Started in the early 1920's as a service
to the British military it once boasted;
horse stables, salt water swimming pool,
tennis courts, and sailing club. It is
the site of the ONLY ocean front golf
course in Ghana, Togo, and Liberia.
Although the course has membership it is
open to any visitors. We have caddies
and clubs for rent and caddies are
available.
The course is a 9 hole layout, with
separate tees and green options to make
18 holes. The course is modestly
maintained by a simple tractor and hand
laborer. We do not have traditional
greens, but rather "browns". A mix of
sand with used engine oil it is a very
smooth putting surface once your line is
smoothed by the local caddies. Beware of
chip shots that come into the brown too
high, or you may find your ball in the
next fairway of the bush!
The course also have golf professionals
and local caddies, who are available for
lessons and to play with if you need
tips on how to play African golf! |
