Activities: Golfing in Coloane

The Macau Golf and Country Club, on the green island of Coloane, is Macau's great golfing escape.

Macau's championship golf course has won the praise of world-class professionals who come for the annual Macau Open.

One of them, Steve Eubanks, a self-described 'recovering golf professional' and freelance folf writer based in the United States, visited Macau to write about the event and was impressed by the 'spectacular views of the South China Sea'. Eubanks gave the club's design, by architect Hiroshi Ikeda of the Aoki group, an enthusiastic thumbs up.

If you plan to stay more than just one day, you can check into the Westin Resort and explore everything the city has to offer without going very far. The club provides privileges to non-member guests at the Resort and in turn, the Westin offers discounts to visiting club members, or to members of 150 associate clubs overseas.
