The tricky Hole 1, a view from The Club House!
This is a hilly and highly demanding golf course.
I would say it is one of the best in Tawau.

Hole 1, a view from the tee box!
This is very challenging starting hole. It is a dogleg left.
A large lake guards in front of the fairway.
Players can tee their ball to the fairway which is about 140 metres away. Iron 8 or 7 would be ideal!
Second shot requires players to work around 160 metres with tremendous accuracy as the green is big and with tall trees guarding the front of the green. A very demanding hole.

The 3 musketeers trying hard to tame this beautiful Par 3!
It is an uphill 175 metres Par 3.
Yes, 3 up! Terrence was seen bullying Bob at this Par 4!

The island liked short Par 3. This is a scenic hole and less undulating than other greens.

The longest Par 4 Hole 12th, The Beauty!

Beautiful Shan-Shui Scenery! The golf course is naturally built and well matured.
The Sulu Split considered Best Par 5 in Asia! The man who conquered every inch of Shan-Shui! Hahahaha!
Another beautiful view from The Club House on Hole 18th!
