Beautifully integrated into the existing landscape of Cap Cana, players will enjoy spectacular sea views and close-up encounters with nature. 9 holes play directly along the Caribbean Sea and all 18 holes have unique ocean views.
Jack Nicklaus designed Punta Espada golf course to incorporate the natural features of the landscape into its topography; the bluffs, the beach, the lagoons, and the foliage.
