Eschuri Vung Bau Golf Course features an 18-hole layout that takes players on a journey "from the forest to the sea." Holes 1 through 9 are set within the ancient Phu Quoc forest, surrounded by old-growth trees. Holes 10 through 18 provide a contrasting experience, winding along Phu Quoc's pristine white sand beaches with wide fairways, coastal trees, and stunning ocean views.
Hole 3, a 416-yard Par 4 from the blue tee, is one of the most challenging and impressive holes on the front nine, boasting a difficulty index of 01.
Approaching this Par 4, golfers are immediately confronted with a strategic challenge—a dogleg fairway that demands precision to reach the green. The White Trâm and Black Sao trees stand guard on the fairway, enhancing the course's classic appeal. Links-style waste areas add to the challenge, acting as traps for errant drives from the left side.
The green, tucked behind a row of trees, adds another layer of challenge, demanding careful distance and direction calculations for the drive. A misjudged second shot risks encountering numerous obstacles, ensuring that true triumph is reserved for those who skillfully navigate these challenges.
