Golf Courses

• Steenberg

Steenberg Golf Club is set on the historic Steenberg Estate in the Constantia Valley near Cape Town, offering a refined golfing experience amid natural beauty. Designed by Peter Matkovich with input from John Hayes, the 18-hole, par-72 championship course opened in 1996 and has since become one of South Africa’s most celebrated golf destinations. The course meanders through a striking landscape of vineyards, wetlands, pine forests, and parklands, with Table Mountain serving as a dramatic backdrop.

• Pearl Valley

Pearl Valley Golf & Country Club, situated within the prestigious Val de Vie Estate in the Paarl–Franschhoek Valley, lies just 35 minutes from Cape Town. The course is surrounded by the imposing Simonsberg and Drakenstein mountain ranges, creating a breathtaking setting for one of South Africa’s most acclaimed golf destinations. Opened in 2003, this 18-hole, par-72 championship course was Jack Nicklaus’s second signature design in the country.

• Pinnacle Point

Pinnacle Point Golf Club stretches over 6,500 meters (about 6,391 yards) and features seven holes that run along the dramatic cliffs of the Indian Ocean, with four holes played directly over the ocean. The course is known for its undulating fairways, coastal winds, and rugged cliffside terrain, offering both breathtaking views and a true test of golf. Among its standout holes are the 7th, a par-3 that demands a precise tee shot over a deep ravine to a green perched precariously on the cliff edge, and the 18th, a par-5 featuring a thrilling approach shot over a canyon to a green well guarded by waste areas and bunkers.

• Simola

Simola Golf & Country Estate, situated in Knysna on South Africa’s Garden Route, boasts an 18-hole, par-72 Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. Since opening in 2005, it has stood out as one of only three Jack Nicklaus-designed courses in Africa and is notable for being the first on the continent. Perched atop Simola Hill, the course offers spectacular panoramic views. The initial seven holes showcase breathtaking sights of the Knysna Heads and Lagoon, while the remaining 11 holes provide vistas over the Knysna River.

• Pezula

Pezula Championship Golf Course, situated in Knysna on South Africa’s Garden Route, is celebrated for its stunning views and demanding design. Created by Ronald Fream and David Dale of GolfPlan USA, the course opened in 2000 and quickly earned a reputation among golfers who appreciate a blend of natural beauty and challenging play. Set across 254 hectares on the East Head of Knysna, the course offers sweeping panoramas of the Knysna Lagoon and the Indian Ocean. With a par of 72, it combines rolling fairways, significant elevation changes, and coastal landscapes that seamlessly integrate into the surroundings.
