Dalit Bay Golf Course Layout
The course was designed to fit in with the local and rustic environment of Sabah Malaysia and rivals the world’s great golf resorts. Spectacular views of Mount Kinabalu, South-East Asia’s tallest peak, are afforded from most holes and the best time of day to catch a glimpse of this peak is early morning before the daily clouds and fog.
The Sabah golf course is bordered by the Tambalang and Menagkabong Rivers and the surrounding area is a mainly forested jungle and mangrove swamps. The sea breeze carries the cries of wild birds and dense jungle fringes the immaculately manicured greens. The course curves through rivers, native rainforests, and wetlands; much of it painstakingly developed from mangrove swamps.
Summary
Dalit Bay is packed with risks and rewards to delight all golfers. Water comes into play on most holes and challenges more accomplished golfers who opt for the back tees. However, the generous fairways make Dalit Bay ideal for those just picking up the game too.
Golfers enjoy a full-service playing experience and the facilities of a 5-star resort. Dalit Bay has an extensive clubhouse with a restaurant, a driving range, putting green, chipping and bunker practice areas, changing rooms and one of the better-stocked pro shops in Kota Kinabalu. Cheers!
