The Nicklaus Design Course at Vidanta Puerto Peñasco

The Nicklaus Design Course at Puerto Peñasco cuts an emerald channel between rolling sand dunes and brilliant desert flora. Bordered on one side by the Sea of Cortez and on the other by a vast tidal estuary, the course is a unique beauty, and its challenging intensity equals the richness of its surroundings. The course is a true treasure for golfers, a chance to say they’ve played on “one of the 20 best and most fascinating courses in the world,” or what Golfweek Magazine named as one of the Best Golf Courses in the Caribbean or Mexico. Browse the pro shop after your game, or stop for a drink at our 19th hole restaurant. You’ll want a moment to reflect on the magnificence of the course you just played.

A product of the unbeatable creativity of Jack Nicklaus & Jack Nicklaus II, the 18-hole, 7,200-yard course at Puerto Peñasco is like nothing you’ve ever played. During construction, the designers allowed the character of the land to breathe through, with the natural sand dunes dictating the shape of the green.
