The landscape, terrain and 43 hectare golf course will give you the feeling and theme of African and Savannah, set and carved amongst mature tree stands with the adjacent mountains giving a fantastic amphitheatre feel. The golf course plays along side and crosses the Riviere Rempart. This plays a spectacular part in many holes that have to cross this river.
Holes have been specially designed to give you scenic views of Mount Rempart and surrounding mountain ranges. Ocean views can also be seen from selective holes. Water is an essential feature of the course - there is a highly mechanised, state of the art ‘Rainbow’ irrigation system that has been installed to irrigate Tamarina. This system is backed and supplied by ‘Watertronics’ pump system, which brags with weather station technology, individual satellites and a fertigation system to feed fertilisers to the golf course through our watering system.
Landscaping grasses include Fataque, Citronelle, Red Grass, Sikine, Vetiver and Lemon Grass. Many indigenous trees have also been planted on site to compliment the already mature feel of the golf course. Due to the climate and terrain, the preferred and recommended means of playing Tamarina is with a golf cart.
Designed by Rodney Wright, the 18-hole, par 72, championship golf course is the longest layout on the island and undulates over 206 hectares of previously rocky hunting grounds, incorporating the natural hazards and features of the landscape, that reveals a unique experience
