Try to play in morning as in the afternoons you might find flies annoying. Very challenging course for beginners, wavy fairways with lot of bunker traps; practice your sand wedge skills.

The wind was howling and worth at least 2 clubs. You have to be brave and aim off into the rough at times allowing for the wind to bring the ball back. Real pain if it doesn't decide to cooperate or if you have misread wind direction. We worked out if you don't see the ball bounce, play a provisional, as the chances are you won't find it. Course was in great condition and would love to play there again. Thought that there could have been more holes running closer to the coast, taking advantage of the views, but I'm no course designer and sure Ross Watson did this for a reason.
