From stream-eroded cliffs, the golf course spreads over crests and hills, down through valleys and around ponds, under the ever blue Mediterranean sky. Designed by the Californian architect Ronald Fream, the Monastir course combines the technical qualities of the best international golf courses, together with a stunning use of North Africa's sumptuously rugged scenery. The course satisfies both the athletic and technical aspects of the game. A player must have both a strong shot and accuracy to overcome the obstacles. The golfer has to contend with the wind and the many large well-placed water hazards.

The practice ground is located on a cliff overlooking the lakes, from the driving range you can overlook the entire golf course and site. The luxurious club house with its white terraces is built in typical Tunisian style. The bar and the restaurant which opens on to the golf course make an ideal stop between the 9th and the 10th holes. The proshop is stocked with the best brands of equipment.
