Corales Golf Course at the Puntacana Resort & Club is one of the most dramatic golf experiences in the Caribbean. Designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 2010, the 18-hole championship layout stretches 7,670 yards along natural limestone cliffs, coral reefs, inland lakes, and coralina quarries — with six holes playing directly along the Caribbean Sea.
The course is best known for the Devil's Elbow, a fearsome three-hole finishing stretch (16–18) that ranks among the most memorable closes in golf. The 18th hole — a dramatic par 4 with a forced carry over the cliff-lined Bay of Corales — has been called "the mother of all holes" and is worth the green fee alone.
Corales is the proud host of the Corales Puntacana Championship, an official PGA Tour event since 2018 and the first PGA Tour tournament ever held in the Dominican Republic. The course consistently ranks among the top 10 in the Caribbean.
