The Bay Course at Costa Navarino

A year after The Dunes Course opened up in Costa Navarino, the alluring Bay followed on a design from Robert Trent Jones II. Golf diehards might claim the course layout is the milder among the four in Costa Navarino, but the views towards the sunset alone suffice to put them into mute.

Excessive reserve of memories from twilight mid-summer rounds in The Bay is the best prescription to cure rainy January morning blues. Holes like # 2 which stretches along the shore and offers a carte-postale vantage point of Pylos as well as the right dogleg # 14 with a lake on the right can only be challenged with the character of the cave clubhouse, which is an architectural landmark by itself.
