Garra de Leon Golf Course

   Although the Cariari golf course, near San Jose, is considered the finest golfing facility in Central America, Garra de Leon will someday be awarded that honor.    Carved into the sloping hillsides of this tropical dry forest, this golf course uses the natural environment to its advantage.  Garra de Leon is definitely a course you can't wait to play again, again and again.

   Many of its perfect rolling greens are tucked into the edges of the surrounding jungle giving the feel that a round at Garra de Leon is a real adventure.  No doubt it will become a golf adventure well worth your remembering for many years to come.  Costa Rica is truly honored and proud to have this excellent golf course within its frontiers.

   Majestic trees, native to Costa Rica, are scattered throughout the golf course adding to its natural beauty.   Designing this course, Robert Trent Jones ll managed to spotlight these trees as guardians for uniquely laid out  greens, shade for certain tee boxes and  marking the edges of the generally wide and inviting fairways.
