| This spectacular course is lava-lined. The lava areas coming into play on every hole are considered to be water hazards. Even with all the lava in play, the fairways still afford generous landing areas. The greens are loaded with subtle breaks and are generally extremely fast. Interesting characteristics to this course begin on #1, a 385-yard, par 4, that plays up to a lava flow. Hole #4 shares an enormous double green with #8. The signature hole is #17 because is was carved out of the lava and features a bunker that runs down the entire side of the fairway. Hole #18, a 400-yard, par 4, features a natural area of water and vegetation in front of the tee and at the edge of a lava flow on the right. |
