Washu Golf Club

Washu Golf Club is an 18-hole course set on a hilltop in Kurashiki, Okayama Prefecture, Japan, overlooking the Seto Inland Sea National Park. Despite its elevated position, the layout is generally flat and avoids the tricky undulations typical of mountain courses. From a teahouse beside the 7th tee, golfers can take in views of the islands dotting the Seto Inland Sea and the Seto Ohashi Bridge below — a reminder of just how high up the course sits. The design blends natural character with visual appeal. Massive rock formations rise dramatically on certain holes, while the contrast between green turf and brightly coloured flowers adds to the course's distinctive atmosphere. Strategic variety throughout the 18 holes makes Washu Golf Club a genuine test for players seeking something beyond the ordinary.
