Red Mountain Golf Club Information

Although its only been open under two years, Red Mountain has very quickly established its as one of, if not the best golf course Phuket. The designer Jon Morrow has made a wonderful job of the landscape with many elevated tees making it a wonderful inviting driving course. The terrain is very undulating and carts are compulsory as there are many steep climbs from greens to the tees. Many of the rock outcrops have been left just as they were in the Tin Mine era, which give the course a very unique character.

This is the highest course in Phuket and some of the views from various points of the golf course are breathtaking.

Take plenty of balls as there is hardly any rough, if you miss the fairway then its usually a lost ball so take advice from your caddy when to take a driver or an iron for safety, the premium around here is accuracy.

Every hole has character but the last three holes are as good as anywhere in the world. The 16th is a  short par four which is nearly driveable but if you miss the green, it's a lost ball. Five iron off the tee into widest part of the fairway and a wedge on to the green and don't forget to check the scenery before you leave the green. The 17th is short par three is directly downhill with nearly a 400 feet drop. The ball is in the air forever and you can never be sure where its going land, so be sure to consult you caddy before you choose the club. The 18th is a wonderful scenic par 5 with red rocky outcrop on the left and a large lagoon in front of the green.

Before you complete the Red Mountain experience, shower in the most modern locker rooms and treat yourself to some of the best thai food in the clubhouse overlooking 18th green...its quite a view .
