Golf course: Ria Bintan Golf Club - Ocean Course

The golf course

The Ria Bintan Golf Club - Ocean Course on the Indonesian island of Bintan is one of the most spectacular golf courses in Asia and a true masterpiece by Gary Player. The 18-hole course (par 72, approx. 6,470 m) offers an impressive mix of tropical rainforest, rolling hills and breathtaking views of the South China Sea. Each hole is harmoniously integrated into the natural surroundings and combines sporting challenge with scenic beauty.

The first holes lead through lush green vegetation before the course opens up on the coast. Holes 7 to 9, which run directly along the sea, are particularly famous. The 8th hole is considered the signature hole - its green is surrounded by the sea on three sides and makes for an unforgettable golfing experience. Wind, water and precisely placed bunkers demand tactical play and accurate shots.

The Ocean Course is challenging but fair and will delight golfers of all abilities. The experience is complemented by excellent practice facilities, a pro store and a stylish clubhouse with a restaurant overlooking the sea. With its combination of tropical nature, exclusive atmosphere and first-class design, the Ria Bintan Ocean Course is one of the absolute highlights of golf in Southeast Asia.
