A South African top 100 championship golf course
Eighteen holes winding through indigenous coastal forest, past water features and fairways overlooking the Chintsa River, lagoon and Indian Ocean — with impala, zebra and giraffe roaming freely alongside play.
Golf as it was meant to be played
Ranked among South Africa’s Top 100 courses, Olivewood’s 18-hole layout is carved through indigenous coastal forest on the western slope of the Chintsa valley. Pristine greens, strategic water features and elevated tee boxes reward thoughtful play.
What sets Olivewood apart is the setting. Herds of impala, zebra, giraffe and nyala move freely across the estate, and several holes open onto sweeping views of the river, lagoon and ocean. It is a round you remember long after the card is signed.
