Greg Norman's Highly Anticipated Blue Shark Golf Club To Open January 2008
Blue Shark Golf Club Will Provide World Class Golf Amenities In Nassau.
Greg Norman, world-renowned professional golfer and course architect, is poised to introduce his greatest work yet, Blue Shark Golf Club in Nassau, Bahamas. In his latest feat, Norman will wow players of all experience levels with modern designs, amazing Caribbean views along with the challenging "Sharks Teeth" series of holes.
"Blue Shark offered a rare opportunity as a course designer – that of transforming a popular and well-designed layout into a spectacular golfing experience" Norman said.
The course's prime location on the grounds of the former South Ocean Golf Club has been redesigned and lengthened to over 7200 yards. The par-72 course is the first on the island to offer a forecaddie program that will insure the expertise and services to make your round one you will not soon forget.
What is expected to become one of the most talked about course features, "Sharks Teeth" will challenge players with strategically placed bunkers, unique terrain, wetlands and fresh water lakes. If a player can make it through these holes without a bogey, the Greg Norman pro shop will provide a well deserved memento.

In addition to the course's breathtaking ocean views, two mystifying 'subterranean water-filled links known as "Blue Holes" reach under the island directly from the Caribbean. Natural influences with uniquely undulating terrain provide 18-holes along the water, over rolling land and through the native Bahamian forest.
A full-size practice facility allows pre-round warm ups and quality rental sets allow guests to save room in their suitcase and leave the clubs at home. Blue Shark golf academy staff is always on hand to provide professional instruction to individuals or groups.
Blue Shark is committed to providing you the ultimate golf experience, our event planners and golf professional's will plan coordinate and execute your golf event, whether it's a social golf outing, corporate tournament, high profile event or a fundraising event.
The course will soon become a part of a larger resort complex currently in the development stages. When not on the course, visitors will be wrapped in the luxury of a world-class 600-room hotel with beach club, spa and casino.
