| The original Barbados Golf and Country Club was designed and built in 1974 by the notable architect Col. J. Harris. For more than 20 years it has laid sleeping awaiting its rebirth. Sept 1st 2000 the redesigned & reconstructed Golf Club reopened as Barbados first public golf course.
The 6,805 yard par 72 golf course has been approved and sanctioned by the PGA European Tour to host a PGA Seniors Tournament in 2003 and has hosted the Barbados Open in 2000 and 2001.
Magnificent trees strategically planted 25 years ago gives the course a mature ambience. Two lakes intrude and enhance play on five holes and create a dramatic Amen Corner on holes 15 & 16. A series of coral waste bunkers carved through 4 holes adds to the excitement and personality of the course.
