Punta Mita (Bahia)
The Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita is home to two top-quality 18-hole championship layouts, the generally higher-rated Pacifico course and the also excellent Bahia course. Both courses are Jack Nicklaus designs.
The Bahia course is a championship layout that ranks with some of the best in Mexico. This tree-lined and open parkland course provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy.
The layout features many lakes and water features, some meandering through multiple holes. In contrast to the Pacifico course, the Bahia offers more undulating fairways and greens, making putting an important part of the playing experience.
The Resort's natural landscape provides a wonderful backdrop for the entire course, while one of the most memorable holes has a downhill approach to a green framed by Banderas Bay. Another noteworthy hole nestles alongside the beach, just steps from Punta Mita's famed El Faro surf spot. Both the Pacifico and Bahia are must plays if you are in the area.
