A Nicklaus Design layout that hosted PGA TOUR Latinoamérica from 2014 to 2019.

Nicklaus Design laid Buenaventura on salt-tolerant Paspalum, wound it through lagoons and century-old Corotú trees, and gave it enough teeth to host PGA TOUR Latinoamérica's Buenaventura Classic for six seasons. Pink muhly grass and white sand frame the fairways, the Pacific sits just behind the treeline, and the Arco Seco's dry-season air keeps it firm and playable when the rest of the tropics are dripping.

The photography

Buenaventura Golf Club, as you’ll see it

A golfer at the edge of a green at Buenaventura Golf Club watches a flock of birds cross above a lake, giant corotu trees lining the fairway.
The corotu trees are the landmark here - huge spreading canopies standing over the lake holes while the birds commute past.
Two golfers on a Buenaventura fairway beside a lake, one playing a shot, with a large sculpted bunker guarding the green behind.
Wide fairways, sculpted bunkers, and water close enough to keep every approach honest.

Straight down on the striped fairway - Nicklaus bunkering with the dry-forest edge in play.

From above: fairways winding between the lakes and mature trees, with the Pacific coastal plain running to the horizon.
