Loch Palm Golf Club Phuket

What is the Course like at Loch Palm Golf Club? 

The front nine holes are very daunting, with water hazards in play on 6 of the first 7 holes.

The first three holes will test your accuracy, as the course winds its way around a lake on your right.

My advice is to take plenty of spare balls because if you slice the ball, you will find yourself in the water, and if you go too far left, you may find yourself in a bunker.

The back 9 holes have you venturing into the mountainous area, there are a few water hazards, but the fairways are much tighter, more undulating, with many elevated tees.

The par 3 14th hole is our personal favourite. This hole requires you to tee off from on top of a hill down to a green, surrounded by water, with a large bunker lying just in front of the green.

At 6,555 yards, this is not a long course and offers a more relaxed game, as you don't have to rely on big drives to make your second shot easier.

Over the years, we have enjoyed quiet a few games of golf at Loch Palm Golf Course and have thoroughly enjoyed every round. The caddies are great and are very helpful in reading the greens.
