About 69km from Kota Kinabalu City or an hour's drive along the Beaufort Highway at Bongawan you will find The Pride of Borneo, an 18-hole, par 5 golf course, sitting on the edge of the South China Sea. Designed by the "Greatest Golfer of the Century", this Jack Nicklaus 18-hole Signature Course playing along a natural lagoon is known as the best championship layout in this region. A "must play" on your golfing agenda in Sabah. Also, spreading over 200 acres on a 900-acre site, the natural features of the lagoon and surrounding terrain is played up to dramatise the water hazards as well as the wastelands and bunkers, giving a strong character to the ‘Golden Bear' course. The unspoilt beauty of its surroundings takes your breath away, literally as you struggle to focus on your game whilst battling stiff ocean winds on the back nine. |
