#1 Dunes Course at Diamante Cabo

This magnificent 18-hole Cabo golf course weaves through undulating Pacific sand dunes.  And, it provides panoramic ocean views from almost every hole.   Dunes Course also shares some similarities with the classic style courses in Scotland.  But, the weather in Cabo San Lucas is warmer, the sand is whiter, and the sea is a deeper blue.

#2 El Cardonal at Diamante Cabo

In 2014, Diamante opened up Tiger Woods’ first golf course design: the 18-hole El Cardonal course, being the second championship golf course created at Diamante Cabo.  Tiger Woods made this course long enough to challenge experts, yet open enough to provide good options for beginners.  Influenced by the old-style courses of Southern California that he grew up playing, Woods created a course that requires strategy, slowing the gameplay and making it a premeditated and peaceful course to golf in.  It truly is a fun test for golfers of all skill levels.

Tiger Woods himself said: “I set up the golf strategy to make golfers think and make choices. Regardless of your handicap, there are going to be different ways to play every hole. Angles of approach are going to be very important and will dictate the type of shots you should consider. I love this kind of golf.”  El Cardonal course at Diamante is a challenging and rewarding golf experience that you’ll want to go over and over again.

Also, as mentioned earlier, this Cabo golf course restores the need for a golf strategy by providing good shot options at each hole.  So, it’s really an existing test for golfers of any skill level.
