Description
Sculpted
out of the coastal dunes along the Eastern
Sea, the Ocean Dunes Golf Club is the ideal
respite from the demands of daily life.
Located
only 200 kilometers northeast of Ho Chi Minh
City, Phan Thiet offers visitors a glimpse of
a traditional Vietnamese fishing village.
Strolling through the town, visitors will
discover a more simple lifestyle, where cyclos
and wooden baskets are still a main mode of
transportation.
Enjoy
Phan Thiet’s brilliant sun, windswept dunes
and sea breezes as you tee-off at one of the
most exciting links style golf courses in the
region.
Designed
by Nick Faldo, the 6746-yard par 72 course at
Ocean Dunes Golf Club winds through seaside
dunes, with the coastal breezes shaping its
character day-to-day. It is an engaging and
playable course for higher handicapped players
who will enjoy the openness of the
links-course.
The
Ocean Dunes Golf Club is an outstanding
natural site with sand dunes, sea breezes,
beach vegetation, and sea views. "We have
let the dunes determine the routing and the
look of the golf course. It should have the
feel and the playability of the early seaside
courses, but with a tropical climate"
says Nick Faldo.
The
Ocean Dunes course offers exciting
opportunities for more experienced players who
will appreciate the challenges posed by the
winds.
When
staying at the Ocean Dunes resort, you will be
experiencing the heights of luxury at the
Novotel Coralia Phan Thiet
What to see and visit in Phan Thiet
On your way there you will find
fascinating roadside sights such as unlimited
rubber tree plantations, banana trees, and
dragon fruit along with miles of colorful,
picturesque rice fields. You will also come
across small fishing villages teaming with
their catches of the day.
With your camera in hand, you
won't let yourself sit still when your eyes
catch little boys clinging on buffalo backs or
Vietnamese fishermen tending to their nets.
Once you reach Phan Thiet
there are other exciting places to see and
explore. Situated just a few kilometers from
the Novotel Ocean Dunes is a perfect spot for
excursion, red sand dunes stretching along the
Mui Ne cape for more than 16km, providing
excellent walking.
You could also explore one of
the most ancient temples of the Cham people
which was built in the 15th century, located
between Phan Thiet town and Mui Ne cape. The
Cham ethnic minority is one of the oldest
ethnic groups in Vietnam and well known for
their construction skills.
