The La Mer 18-hole golf course is one of France’s rare links courses. This demanding course in a dune environment offers the rare combination of subtle, complex and windy holes. It’s an incredible challenge for an experienced golfer.
The course starts off with a magnificent dogleg par 5. I recommend you play your drive to the right side of the fairway to avoid a troublesome second shot. Attack the green from about the 100-metre mark and aim for the middle! This might help you avoid the bunker and the many slopes.
This long, well-protected par 3 will give you a hard time. Feel free to play a little long to avoid the bunkers in front of the green.
On paper, this is the easiest hole on the course. The fairway is quite wide and you’ll have to get past the mound to attack the green more comfortably. The approach is downhill and you’ll often have the wind behind you, so pick the right club.
A par 5 with a slight dogleg to the right. Aim between the two fairway bunkers to hit your best drive. And keep an eye on the water hazard on the right. There are different strategies you can adopt for your second shot, depending on your ball length. I recommend you leave an approach of 100 metres and aim for the edge of the green for an uphill putt.
If you manage to hit a good drive down the fairway avoiding the bunkers, you’re off to a great start. Try to stay to the right of the green on the approach to give yourself an easier putt.
A short downhill par 4. Line up your shot to the right of the fairway before landing your ball on the sparsely defended green.
A par 3 with a very sloping raised green. Play to the right side of the green and your ball will come back to the middle.
A demanding par 4. Water on the left, trees on the right… Aim for the bunker on the green to stay on the fairway. Move up a club for your second shot to reach the green.
This long par 4 is a real challenge. Aim slightly to the right of the fairway to give yourself a shorter second shot. It’s a large green, so don’t be afraid to hit your second shot a bit long.
You’re usually playing into the wind on this uphill par 3. Keep to the right side of the green to ensure you’re on par and maybe even able to snag a birdie.
This is the most challenging hole on the course. Try not to play your tee shot too far to the left. For less powerful hitters, playing this hole in par 5 is your best option.
A straight par 4. Try to hit your tee shot down the right side of the fairway. Reaching the green in regulation is extremely satisfying! Move up a club to reach the raised green.
Don’t let the sound of the waves distract you from your tee shot. Aim slightly left of the fairway bunker on your first shot. The green is very sloping. Aim to the centre left of the green and don’t hit it short if you want to make par or better!
A nice par 4. Play it safe by driving down the right of the fairway. The green is quite flat. Stay on the left side of the green to avoid the bunker!
A dogleg par 5. The hardest part of this hole is the blind second shot. Try to land the ball 100 metres from the green to make the approach shot easier.
A magnificent downhill par 3. Choose your club wisely to land your ball on the green.
A par 5 with a left dogleg. There are no major hazards to interfere with your first stroke. For your second stroke, I recommend you land the ball about 100 metres from the green. Move up a club on your approach. If you hit the ball too short, it risks rolling down into the bunkers!
This is the last challenge of the round. Take the time to enjoy the breathtaking 360° panoramic view from the tee box. There are no obvious difficulties with the tee shot. However, the green is small, so your approach shot needs to be accurate!
