The 18 hole Le Touesserok One and Only Golf Course, is situated on its very own tropical island, off the Eastern coast of Mauritius.

All 18 holes have views of the ocean, some with glimpses across clearings through trees, others by coming close to the shore. There are nine lakes with a number of holes requiring tee shots across sea inlets to the fairways. The water and the expansive bunkers of indigenous white sand set off the natural backdrop of trees and vegetation.

Playing at over 6476 metres (7123 yards), this is the longest course in Mauritius, with the holes snaking up and down the length of the island. Bernhard Langer has designed the course to challenge advanced players while remaining exciting and playable for recreational golfers. This has been achieved with four sets of tee decks for each hole so that the angles of attack vary – with a generous provision of fairway where appropriate. The greens are mainly small and undulating, requiring precise approach shots.

Your cost for day includes a shared buggy with GPS * Green fees for 18 holes, followed by lunch at a Private Hunting Lodge in a fabulous setting. Transfer costs will depend of course on where you are staying.

When to go to Mauritius

A Mauritius holiday is an unforgettable experience and with activities such as diving, snorkelling, fishing, golf, walking and sailing – you are guaranteed never to be short of things to do.
Although everyone who visits Mauritius comes for the sandy beaches and blue lagoons, most are delighted to discover that the island has plenty of other attractions too, from some of the world's rarest stamps to the first ever race course to open in the southern hemisphere. Of course no holiday would be complete, either, without good food and entertainment. Mauritius offers both, with some delicious local cuisine that makes use of tropical fruits and vegetables, and the chance to learn the island's indigenous wild dance, the Sega, which originated among the African slaves of yore.

Mauritius is a year round destination. The peak holiday season runs from October to Easter, with hotel prices dropping over the winter months.
The Mauritian winter occurs from July to September, when daytime temperatures drop from sticky to balmy. With less rain and humidity, this is one of the best times to visit. Weatherwise, the least agreeable period is from January to April, when the long days can be very hot and humid and the threat of cyclones is in the air.
You should be prepared to spend a couple of days cooped up indoors during extra–heavy rains if you visit between January and March. December through March is the best time for diving, when the water is at its clearest. June through August is best for surfing. October through April is excellent for big game fishing, as this is when the large predators feed close to shore.
