El Cortes Golf Club

Situated along the Sea of Cortez, El Cortes Golf Club (formerly known as Costabaja Golf Club) overlooks the resort and the pristine white sandy beaches. On clear days, which occur often, the sparkling blue waters seem to stretch as far as the eye can see. El Cortes is the country's first Gary Player Signature golf course. The layout tumbles across dramatic elevation changes accented with stands of cacti, giving it a unique "desert-by-the-sea" feel. The course is a challenging but fair test that will appeal to a wide range of skill levels with elevated tees, wide fairways, and receptive greens. El Cortes Golf Club's par-5 14th is one of the most memorable holes since it requires an accurate shot to a fairway situated 200 feet below, it is the most daunting tee shot on the golf course for sure. While it may be the most dramatically elevated tee, it is definitely not the only one.
