About the Course
Set on Colombia's Caribbean coast just north of Cartagena, the Jack Nicklaus-designed course at Club Karibana is an 18-hole, par-72 resort layout and the country's only oceanfront golf course. The front nine winds through native forest around a chain of lakes, while the back nine opens onto sweeping Caribbean views, with the closing holes playing along the sea. Built to PGA TOUR standards on seashore paspalum and formerly part of the TPC Network, it pairs tournament-caliber conditioning with a full resort of hotel, spa, beach club, and tennis. It suits traveling golfers seeking a premium warm-weather round minutes from Cartagena's historic walled city.

Local Tips
GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR ROUND
01
Play the back nine late in the day
The closing holes run along the Caribbean — a late-afternoon tee time gets you the oceanfront finish in the best light.
02
Book through the resort
Dreams Karibana guests get exclusive tee-time pricing; it's the simplest way for visitors to get on.
03
Bring extra balls
Water is in play on nearly half the holes and there are 124 bunkers — an extra sleeve or two is wise.
