Cocotal Golf & Country Club is one of Punta Cana's premier golf destinations, offering 27 holes of championship golf designed by acclaimed Spanish architect José "Pepe" Gancedo. Set among thousands of swaying coconut palms in the heart of the Bavaro resort area, the course beautifully integrates the natural tropical landscape into its design.
The course features three distinct nines — each offering a different character and challenge.

The tropical setting and Caribbean breezes make every round a memorable experience.
