Day 6
Golf at Arabella. The Arabella golf course has a demanding and exceptional design that offers a challenging experience to all levels of golfers. It puts professional golfers to the test and at the same time is playable for the average hacker. The fairways are wide and spacious. Both fairways and greens are in an exceptionally good condition.
Choosing a signature hole is tough as the 9th, 17th and the 18th all run parallel to the lagoon. As a result, we have chosen the par-three 17th. This hole requires a precise tee shot. If you miss the green to the right, you might find yourself on the beach!
Day 7

Day 8
Golf at Erinvale. The Erinvale Golf Course in Somerset West was designed by Gary Player and is seen as one of the best courses of the Western Cape province of South Africa . In 1996 it hosted the IGA World Cup of Golf. The course is situated on the former Erinvale Farm at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains.
The views are spectacular. One can see beautiful the False Bay and the Hottentots Holland Mountain range in the east. The mountains protect the course from the wind. The first 9 holes lie in a valley and are despite the many bunkers and water hazards quite easy to play. Holes 10 to 18, however, stretch over mountainous terrain and provide considerable challenges. In parts the fairways ascend steeply.
Day 9
Golf at Pearl Valley. Nicklaus has stayed true to his design principles by working closely with nature and has provided a golf course that fits in with the environment. This fairly flat and largely uninterrupted terrain enabled Nicklaus the freedom to develop hole strategies making this a golf course the golfer has to think his/her way around. In its engineering and planning detail, the course is very rare. It is crossed by roads in only three places, and the drainage system allows play to continue just minutes after a severe cloudburst.
