Lemuria Resort Golf Course

Designed by Rodney WRIGHT (in charge for the famous Mana Lani course in Hawaii) and co-designed by French champion Marc Farry, this international course 18 holes opened in October, 2000. Between paradise and earth, following the magnificent beaches of the Kerlan creeks ... The first 12 holes are lined with palm trees, filtering the light at intervals.From the 13th hole, the course goes over the stiff hillsides of a hill covered with plentiful forests, offering a sight to cut your breath, and it is here where the game becomes spectacular and provocating.
The signature is in hole N.15, where the player is on a rocky fish bone which gives onto the crystal clear sea and the white beaches of Anse Georgette. A freat selection of the club and good hability are indispensable to go to the following green, 50 metres lower in the valley. The final descent in the 18th is one by-5, along albizias and artificial lakes. A long shot tee, only, will allow you to reach this green in two knocks.

Lemurie is the old civilization of the time of Atlantide. Concretely, we think that it would have existed in the South Pacific, between North America, Asia, and Australia. Lemurie is sometimes associated to Mu, or the Mother of Earth. At the top of their civilization, lemurs had become evolved and very spiritual people. Whereas the concrete proof of this old continent is difficult to find, a lot of people "feel" that they have a strong connection with Lemurie.
