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.
