East London Golf Course: Gleneagles Road, Bunker Hill, East London. The East London Golf Club, skilfully fashioned out of dense coastal bush, hills and dunes, just a few metres away from the warm water of the Indian Ocean, has hosted six South African Opens, which confirms the high esteem in which the course is held.

There are breathtaking views of the sea at several points on the course and Nahoon Reef, a world-famous surfing spot, is close to the north-east corner of the East Bank. A golfer must contend with steep climbs up and down the dunes as he strolls along the green fairways. More often than not, he or she will have to contend with a fierce wind whistling through the valleys.

Awards: The Complete golfer included East London on its list of South Africa's finest courses. Golf Digest currently ranks East London as and in November 1994 the panel of judges moved it up the list into the top five. As has been the case for many years the East London Golf Club is the foremost club in the region.

Signature Hole: The long par-four ninth hole is one of South Africa's great golf holes, a dogleg played from an elevated tee over an undulating fairway into a valley framed by bush. The East London Golf Club is without question a deserving member of the aristocracy of South Africa's finest golf facilities.
