EXPLORE: GOLFING

The secret is out. The Cowichan region is being hailed as one of the friendliest and most spectacular places to play golf on the Island. Home to several of Vancouver
Island ’s premium golf courses, the Cowichan has something to offer the first time golfer, the weekend golfer and the budding pro. Three training facilities offer year round coaching; two are associated with 18 hole courses. The driving ranges, par three courses and pitch and putts are a fun family outing. You will be able to find something that meets every skill level.

Whether you are looking for a quick 9-holes,or you feel up to an 18-hole championship course, be sure to keep  your focus as the breathtaking views and wildlife are a distraction. Your backdrop will be rugged mountains, lush forested areas and ocean views. You may find yourself looking at everything except the greens!
 
All this fresh West Coast air and sunshine can work up an appetite. Not to worry, after an enjoyable day on the course, you ’ll be able to step inside and dine at your leisure while overlooking some of the most magnificent sunsets and scenery in the area. For golfers who already enjoy the courses in the Cowichan there will soon be one more reason to return; the new Greg Norman course on the Cliffs of Maple Bay is slated to open in the Spring of 2008.

Enjoy our endless days of sun and warmth – we have all the ingredients for an experience that does not stop.

Come and Play Cowichan.
