The Ocean Course is described by course designer Jack Nicklaus as "the best golf property I've ever seen." This 18-hole, award-winning course is one of the few courses in the world that offers dramatic views of mountain, desert and sea. Considered by some to be the most challenging in Los Cabos, even those who don’t agree with this say it is of spectacular design and thrilling to play.

This championship layout is praised by Nicklaus himself for having the “three finest finishing holes in all of golf.” The 5th and signature 17th holes are currently ranked among “The 500 Best Holes in the World” according to Golf Magazine. (In 2011, Nicklaus redesigned the 5th green and 6 and 7 ocean par 3 holes, they are more spectacular then before!).

Plenty of arroyos, sand traps and other obstacles make play very interesting. Par 72, 7,103 yards from the championship tees, 18 holes Located at "Bahía de las Ballenas" (trans: Bay of the Whale) on the Sea of Cortés (Gulf of California) has seven holes on or touching the water (5, 6, 7, 8, 16, 17, 18) , with our full length ocean holes (6, 7, 17, 18) and featuring a shipwreck behind tees at hole #7. The finishing hole, guarded by desert and cactus on the right and rock cliffs leading to the sea on the left, is modeled after the eighteenth at Pebble Beach.
