Tortuga Bay with golf at Corales GC & La Cana

Tortuga Bay

Tortuga Bay is situated on its own private beach within the 15,000-acre Punta Cana Resort and nature reserve, 5 km from Punta Cana Village. It’s an incredibly luxurious experience with secluded privacy and unparalleled service. Guests can select from a variety of accommodations including one bedroom Junior Suites, two bedroom Suites and three or four bedroom Villas. Each of them is located along a pristine white sandy beach. There’s four restaurants and six bars, two pools, the Six Senses spa, tennis and water sports.

Corales GC

Corales Golf Club was designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 2009. It’s a stunning 18-hole course with six ocean-side holes. He used the natural cliffs, bays and coves of the sea and the inland lakes and quarries to make a visually striking layout. The challenge culminates at the Devil’s Elbow, the memorable final three holes. The dramatic 18th is the pick of them with its forced carry over the cliff-lined Bay of Corales. It’s an inspired and memorable ending to a breathtaking golf experience.
