A straightforward opening par 4 with a wide fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Bunkers protect the right side of the green, demanding accuracy on the approach shot.

A lengthy par 5 that offers multiple routing options for players of varying abilities. The fairway provides room to work with, though positioning is key for an effective third shot into the green.

A short par 3 playing to a well-bunkered green surrounded by sand on multiple sides. The compact green requires precision over distance, making club selection and accuracy critical.

A solid par 4 with a fairway that demands straight driving to avoid trouble on both sides. The approach to the green is challenging, with hazards framing the putting surface and limiting bailout options.

A shorter par 4 that rewards accurate driving with a manageable approach. The green sits tight with limited room for error, making this hole a test of precision despite its modest length.

A substantial par 5 requiring strategic planning across multiple shots. Water and hazards come into play throughout the hole, particularly penalizing errant shots on the right side.

A demanding par 3 playing considerably longer than it appears, with elevation changes adding complexity. The green is well-protected by bunkers, and the lack of bailout area makes this a pivotal scoring hole.

A short par 4 with a tight driving area bordered by hazards on both sides. The narrow fairway demands placement and control, with the compact green leaving little margin for approach shots.

A mid-length par 4 with a fairway that tightens as it approaches the green. Hazards frame the landing area and surround the putting surface, making both accuracy and distance control essential.
A balanced par 4 featuring a relatively open fairway with hazards positioned to penalize poor positioning. The approach must navigate around strategic bunkering to reach a moderately sized green.
A long par 5 that stretches across the property and demands intelligent course management. Water and hazards play a significant role throughout, particularly on the right side of the hole.
A substantial par 4 with a fairway that narrows considerably approaching the green. Bunkers guard the entrance to the green, and the putting surface itself is relatively small, making the approach crucial.

A short but intricate par 3 with a well-bunkered, elevated green. The compact target area and surrounding sand make this a precision test where distance control and accuracy are paramount.

A generous par 5 with a fairway that provides reasonable width for the drive. The hole curves subtly, and strategic positioning allows players to set up an achievable third shot to reach the green.
A shorter par 4 with a straightforward design that doesn't forgive wayward shots. Limited bailout area around the green means the approach must be accurate to set up a makeable putt.

A mid-length par 4 with a fairway that demands careful placement between hazards. The green sits behind bunkering that protects the entrance, creating a challenging final approach into the scoring area.

A very short par 3 playing to an island green or heavily water-surrounded putting surface. The compact hole offers little margin for error, making it a high-risk, high-reward scoring opportunity.
A closing par 4 with a fairway that plays relatively straightforward but requires solid execution. The finishing hole likely features strategic bunkering around the green that influences both positioning and approach strategy.
