The Legend Golf Course - Belle Mare Plage
Frequently Asked Questions
When's the best time of year to tackle The Legend, avoiding the worst of Mauritius's weather?
We always recommend visiting between May and December. You'll enjoy cooler, drier weather, which makes navigating those challenging fairways much more pleasant than battling the heat and humidity of summer. Plus, the wind tends to be a bit more predictable then.
What's the biggest challenge or unique feature I should prepare for at The Legend?
The course's natural hazards are its true character - think volcanic rock outcrops and those ever-present lagoons. You'll need precise shot-making, especially on holes like the 17th, where water looms large and the wind can really play tricks on your ball.
I've heard about deer on the course - is that really a thing, and does it affect play?
Absolutely, the deer are a charming, unique feature of The Legend, often seen grazing peacefully on the fairways. They generally keep their distance and won't interfere with your round, but it's a lovely, unexpected touch that adds to the course's natural beauty.
Is The Legend course accessible to non-resort guests, and what's the typical green fee like?
While resort guests at Constance Belle Mare Plage usually get preferential rates or even complimentary rounds, non-guests can play too, though it comes at a premium. Expect green fees to be on the higher side, reflecting its championship status and pristine condition. It's worth every penny for the experience.
What specific gear or preparation do you recommend for playing The Legend?
Given the course's Paspalum grass and potential for wind, we strongly advise bringing extra golf balls - those lagoons are hungry! Also, consider a good rangefinder to accurately gauge distances, as the visual appeal can sometimes be deceiving.
