 The Crete Golf Club is home to the first 18-hole course on the island and it is
a lay-out that few visitors will ever forget. Course architect, Bob Hunt, has
taken what was once an unkempt piece of rugged mountainside and transformed it
into a verdant oasis surrounded by some of the most beautiful views in the whole
of Europe.The course itself is best described as a desert-style lay-out, featuring expansive fairways hewn through rocks and ravines. Visitors soon realize that the emphasis is on accuracy, although the landing areas are generous enough to accommodate all but the most errant shots. Hunt, who also designed the links course at Tobago Plantations, home of the annual Tobago Plantations Seniors Classic on the European Seniors Tour, has created a host of memorable holes, none more so than the 198-yard par-3 6th and the short 330-yard par-4 11th where the view behind the green simply takes the breath away. The 6th, which is destined to become the course’s signature hole, requires both accuracy and careful club selection. |
