Haikou Dongshan Golf Club, also known as Hainan Dongshan Lake Golf Club, is about 30 kilometers south-west of Haikou city. Designed by Malaysian C. J. Tan, this course enjoys a certain repute. All the fairways are ‘north-south’-aligned so as to avoid the glaring morning or evening sun and all are turfed with specially cultivated local grass. The drainage system is so effective that play can resume immediately after heavy rains.
The entire course is built alongside the western shore of the Dongshan Lake. It is not the water from the lake that bothers but rather that from the numerous man-made ponds in between the fairways of this Par-72 18-hole 7,050-yard course that has to be overcome for a good score. Additionally, bunkers in the shape of volcanic craters with amber colour sand dot the entire course, creating an impression of playing on a moon-scape course.
