Play the championship course at Constance Lemuria Golf
Constance Lemuria's championship 18‑hole course on Praslin is one of the most scenic island golf experiences in the Indian Ocean. Carved into coastal granite outcrops and tropical vegetation, the layout offers a mix of seaside holes with sweeping ocean views and sheltered inland fairways. The course suits both low‑handicap players seeking a strategic test and recreational golfers who want to enjoy spectacular landscapes while playing a championship routing.

Itinerary
Arrival and check‑in at the pro shop
Collect rental clubs if needed, confirm tee time, pay green fees and pick up any booked buggies. Early tee times help avoid mid‑day heat.
Warm‑up at the driving range and short game area
Spend 20–30 minutes on the range and chipping/putting green to get used to the turf and speed of the greens.
Tee off — 18‑hole round
Enjoy ocean‑front holes in the early morning light. Keep hydrated and use sun protection; callums and course staff can advise on local winds.
Lunch at clubhouse or resort restaurant
Refuel with light island cuisine and cold drinks. If you prefer, book a late‑afternoon 9‑hole round or a twilight tee time.
Optional 9 holes or practice session
Many players opt for a relaxing 9 after lunch, or head to the beach to combine golf with swimming/snorkelling.
Safety Requirements
High‑SPF sunscreen, sunglasses and a wide‑brimmed hat — tropical sun is strong year‑round.
Stay hydrated — carry a water bottle and use on‑course refreshment stations.
Follow marshals' and staff instructions regarding buggies, cart paths and restricted areas near cliffs or granite outcrops.
Be cautious during sudden tropical showers and suspend play if lightning is observed.
Inform the pro‑shop of any medical conditions; know the route back to your accommodation and emergency contacts.
Tips
Book tee times well in advance, especially during high season (June–September) and if you are staying at Constance hotels.
If travelling light, reserve rental clubs in advance to ensure preferred brand/fit.
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen to protect island marine life if you plan to swim after golf.
Ask about combined resort packages — many include preferential green fees, transfers and dining credits.
Aim for early morning or late‑afternoon tee times to avoid the hottest part of the day and enjoy calmer winds.
Check dress code — collared shirts and golf shoes are typically required on the course and in the clubhouse.
