Golf Course

Where to Golf in Vanuatu

While you most likely are not going to Vanuatu just for golf, there are a number of resorts and country clubs where you can get in a game or two while on vacation. Although you can bring your own clubs with you, if you are so inclined, there are several places where you can rent clubs for your game.

If you plan to play an easy game or have a relaxing round, your best bet is to book accommodations at a resort that has a golf course on site. On the island of Efate, you will find over half a dozen resorts and hotels that offer a course for golf enthusiasts.

Le Meridien Golf Course

Although not one of the biggest resort golf courses in Vanuatu, Le Meridien Resort in Port Vila offers a 9-hole course for guests to enjoy. There are also a number of other activities, like table tennis and swimming pools for guests to enjoy while other family members are on the course.

Le Lagon Golf Course

Another resort that offers a 12-hole golf course, as well as golf clubs and hand carts for fire, is Le Lagon Resort in Vanuatu. Le Lagon is located on Erakor Lagoon not far from the Bauerfield International Airport and Port Vila.

Other Golf Courses

The Hideaway Island Resort and Marine Sanctuary also offer a note-worthy golf course for guests and island visitors. While not an actual course, the Benjor Beach Club has a 100 meter driving range for golfers, as well as the only 18-hole miniature golf course in Port Vila. Many more hotels, resorts, and lodges offer similar courses or golf facilities too.

Port Vila Golf and Country Club

For those looking for a challenging, 18-hole course, the best bet is to check out one of the two country clubs in Efate. The first is the Port Vila Golf and Country Club, which offers a professionally designed course that runs along the shore of the sea. The other, which also includes a course through the beaches, is the White Sands Country Club. Both clubs welcome guests, as well as their members, to enjoy their courses while in Vanuatu.

If your hotel or resort does not offer a golf course on-site, you can typically make reservations or accommodations at one of the golf courses at the surrounding area. However, with so many things to do and experience in Port Vila, Efate, or other areas of Vanuatu, you may not find yourself with as much time to play golf as you had originally imagined. There are a variety of resorts to be found on HotelsCombined.com that can provide you with golf courses or recommendations.
