Hotel Mercure Omaha Beach

About Hotel Mercure Omaha Beach Holiday Apartment

The golf club at Omaha Beach was founded in 1985 by Guy Dupontand has three nine-hole coursesall designed by the revered golf architectYves Bureau.

La Mer is the most prestigious of Omaha's three coursesand benefits from a spectacular location on the cliff-top overlooking the harbour at Port-en-Bessin. Holes 2 and 6 are the most memorablewith outstanding views of the artificial wartime Allied harbour and the English Channel. Measuring 3 099 yardsLa Mer will be a certain highlight of your visit to Omaha Beach.

Le Bocage (The Hedgerow Course) combines with La Mer to formulate the recognised championship course at Omaha Beach. Bordered by classical Norman flora and fauna - the wonderful rhododendrons are a particular highlight - the Hedgerow builds to a mighty crescendo with two terrific closing holes. The 17^th and 18^th are tough par-4swhose strategic bunkering provides a real challenge.

Omaha Beach's third loop is called L'Etangor The Pondand although it is shorter than the resort's two more established coursesthe presence of water looms large over many holes. With views of the historic cathedral at BayeuxL'Etang is a stunning place to enjoy a round of golfand adds much to the intriguing character at Omaha Beach.

Omaha Beach now boasts a fourth loopnamed Le Manoirwhich has been well received by early golfers.
