The most interesting hole is number 2 (Par 3,
meters 197). Downhill and always with a
cross-wind. The out-of-bounds (o.b.) run along
the right up to 40 mts. from the green and to
the rear constituted by the main road.
Three sand bunkers are ready to stop the
low-flopped shots.
Difficult the hole number 8 : dog-legged to
the right, uphill against the wind, with
out-of-bounds to the right and three rows of
eucalyptus which prevent a recovery of mistaken
shots. The green has a slight slope, relatively
narrow, protected at the front by three large
bunkers. A fourth bunker is situated to the
right of the green.
Very penalizing the shot to the green for who
hits the right edge. Here you can move
out-of-bounds.
The whole course winds its way
between oak pines and eucalyptus. The scent in
the air, the silence, the birds of Elba's
Natural Park, the view of the gulf and also
inland, makes it a frame for a game which
presents itself interesting and at the same
time committing.
Don't understimate the
courtesy and organizing capacity of our team
of experts, captained by the manager, Mr.
Giovanni Inglese.
