PELICAN GOLF CLUB

Pelican Golf Club, an 18-hole golf course designed with inspiration from Donald Ross' original layout, plays to a par 70 and nearly 7,000 yards. Pelican Golf Club features lush greenery, undulating terrain, and crushed quartz sand. Every detail has been artfully designed and planned to perfection.

Although the course is rooted in the beauty of old-world courses of the past, its infrastructure is state of the art. It features manicured fairways and uninterrupted rough with greens and tees maintained at the highest levels.
