Description
FLC Ha Long Golf Club
Perched high above the legendary Ha Long Bay in northern Vietnam, FLC Ha Long Golf Club is a breathtaking 18-hole championship course offering sweeping views of one of the world’s most iconic coastal landscapes. Designed by Schmidt-Curley Design and opened in 2017, this hilltop layout offers golfers a unique blend of elevation, scenery, and strategic design that has quickly made it one of the most photogenic courses in Asia.
The course is part of the expansive FLC Ha Long Bay Golf & Resort complex, which includes a luxury hotel, international convention center, entertainment hub, and spa. Located just a short drive from Ha Long City center, the course provides an ideal escape for golfers visiting the UNESCO World Heritage-listed region.
Stretching 6,866 yards from the back tees, the par-71 course winds through rolling hills and natural rock outcroppings. Fairways are framed by lush native trees and offer panoramic vistas of Ha Long Bay’s limestone karsts and emerald waters. Elevation changes are central to the course’s character, requiring precision club selection and rewarding players with stunning downhill tee shots.
What makes FLC Ha Long Golf Club particularly memorable is its integration into the landscape — preserving natural rock formations and maximizing the site's altitude to deliver unmatched coastal panoramas on nearly every hole. It’s a perfect combination of luxury, challenge, and nature, making it a must-play destination for golfers touring northern Vietnam.
