The Pezula golf course has a links design. Set on 254 hectares atop the Knysna clifftops, the golf course features views over the Knysna Lagoon and the Indian Ocean. With a par of 72, the course is 6,485 yards / 5,930 metres long. The course covers a vast area; the two nines lie on opposite sides of the clubhouse, and every hole offers different views and aesthetics. The signature holes are the 13th and 14th, which offer sensational views over the Indian Ocean as a par-5 and par-4 respectively.
Wide fairways feature at Pezula Resort. Between holes resides private estates, ravines and native bush-land. Some tiered tees require long carries over these ravines to open fairways. Rounded bunkers pepper the terrain, while raised greens form a natural defence against uncontrolled golf shots. When the wind is blowing, it is a challenging golf course, but its varied tees accommodate every calibre of golfer.
