Cannes Old Course

The "Old Course", founded in 1891 by Grand-Duke Michael of Russia, is one of the oldest golf courses in France and is known throughout the world. It was modelled on the famous St Andrews golf course in Scotland.

It offers 2 courses: 18-holes and 9-holes, laid out in the shade of century-old pines. The picturesque 18-hole course (5676 m par 71) has superb links, wide fairways and undulating greens. There's a river-crossing to gain access to the 3rd hole.


Riviera Golf

Opened in 1991, a century after its famous neighbour, the Riviera Golf Course was designed by the American Robert Trent Jones Senior.

Located in an area of unspoiled natural beauty, surrounded by the l'Estérel Massif and the mimosa forest, this 18-hole course (5066 metres, par 71) is a very technical, undulating and wooded course, with water hazards.
