Course Insight
The Tom Fazio-designed Corales Golf Course opened in 2010 with six holes playing along the cliffs, bays and coves of the Caribbean Sea and inland holes dotted with lakes and coralina quarries.
Notable Course Features
The last three holes play toward or along the Bay of Corales and are called the Devil’s Elbow. The 214-yard par-3 17th skirts the coast with a narrow green guarded by bunkers on both sides. The 501-yard par-4 18th wraps around the water, enticing players to bite off as much of a carry as they dare on the tee shot.
Charity Benefit
Proceeds benefit the Grupo Puntacana Foundation, formed to create opportunities that improve the well-being of the inhabitants of the Punta Cana region with social programs; proceeds also benefit the development of innovative solutions to environmental challenges.
