Day 3
Golf at Arcangues Golf Course
Arcangues Golf Course, owned by the Arcangues family (inhabitants of the area since 1170), is a hilly course with many slopes. Strategy requires a large variety of strokes. Even though the course itself is short, the bunkers and greens have been thoughtfully designed - typical of its architect, Ronald Fream - making Arcangues a true challenge (slope over 140). Several holes offer panoramic views of the Pyrenees.
Suggested sightseeing: Visit Arcangues, a charming village made famous by the singer Luis Mariano. See its town hall and school with shutters painted "Arcangues Blue", and the churchyard with a beautiful view overlooking the golf course - one of the finest views in the Pays Basque.

the Master Trent Jones, has been ranked 25th
among the top 50 best golf courses in Europe.
Preserving the ocean-facing pines, this superb championship
course offers a true view of the Landes with
its wide fairways carved out of the pine forest, and
its small hilly dunes. Some tough bunkers
preserve the greens, with three of them requiring
blind shots.
Since 1998, Moliets Golf Course has been
selected as one of the National
Golf training centers for PGA players.

Day 6
Golf at Chiberta Golf Course
Designed by the most famous British golf architect, Tom Simpson
(who acted in this occasion on the orders
of his employer, the Duke of Windsor), Chiberta is an international
class golf
course rated amongst
the top ten in France.
With 6 holes along the ocean front, and 12
in the pine forest, this course has
not two holes alike, and its sandy soil allows the visitor
to play in excellent conditions all year
long.
When the ocean winds blow at Chiberta, it
is essential to know how to work
the ball (the priority is to keep the ball in play
as
on the famous Scottish links), and
players with a tight short game will probably
succeed.
Suggested sightseeing: Visit the seaport of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, the birthplace of composer Maurice Ravel. A short walk from the port leads to the church of Saint Jean-Baptiste, dating from the 15th century, where the marriage of Louis XIV and the Infanta Marie Thérèse was celebrated. Nearby is the town of Guethary, its large villas and small houses with white chalked walls rising along the Avenue of General de Gaulle.

Hagge, ranked among the top 100 best courses in the
world by Golf World Magazine. Its narrow fairways and sloping
greens surrounded by water
hazards require a constant accuracy.
Considered as one of the most challenging golf course
in France, Seignosse is one of Jose Maria Olazabal’s favorite
course who comes here to work his iron game.
