You'll encounter some thoughtful bunkering and a few holes with noticeable elevation changes, so club selection and accuracy are key. It's a course that rewards smart play over brute force.

Are there any particular holes at Golf de Valcros that I should look forward to or be wary of?

Absolutely, keep an eye out for the par-3 10th hole-it's a beautiful downhill shot with stunning views, but don't let the scenery distract you from the tricky green. The 18th is also a memorable finishing hole, often requiring a precise approach over water to a well-guarded green. These two really stand out.

Should I rent a buggy at Golf de Valcros, or is it easily walkable?
