Description
Zimbali Lodge is well known for its stunning 18-hole golf course. It offers a challenging round of golf of world-class standards and stunning views. Golf carts are compulsory and available for hire, the Club’s Pro Shop has all the golfers necessities and the clubhouse offers a bar and restaurant.
The golf course runs alongside the Indian Ocean and boasts spectacular sea view from the 14th through to the 18th. This adds to the scenic beauty of the of course and compensates for the stiff coastal wind that sometimes blows causing the golfer the odd problem or two.
PS:Please be advised that the Zimbali Lodge golf course will be closed for two days to undergo its annual Spring Treatment (hollowtining) on Monday 25th and Tuesday 26th October 2004. Thereafter for one to two weeks, the course will be playable but still under recovery.
Playing the Course
The Zimbali Golf Coastal Resort Course varies. Starting off with a coastal links feel, the course takes a dramatic turn through rough rolling wetlands and ends up in the Zimbali Coastal forest. The course is also a tough walk but fortunately golf carts are compulsory!
Most of the tees are high on the side of hills or sand dunes. The fairways cut through the valley and the greens, seemingly always at the bottom of the next hill. This makes judging distance a time consuming task, especially for first those playing this golf course for the first timetimers to the course!
Tom Wieskopf, the designer of this Northern KwaZulu-Natal masterpiece and past winner of the British and SA Open championship, stays true to his philosophy of providing a fair challenge to golfers of any level. What could be better than playing this challenging course in such delightful surroundings?
