The bunker gauntlet

Iberostar Bávaro Golf Club

Designed by P.B. Dye.

P.B. Dye's Bávaro puzzle — white-sand bunkers by the hundred, threaded with lakes and waste areas.

P.B. Dye built Iberostar's Bávaro course on flat resort ground and then made flatness irrelevant: more than a hundred white-sand bunkers, desert-style waste areas, lakes and a waterfall turn every approach into a decision. The greens are pure Dye — small, tilted, and quick to punish the merely adequate shot — and the trade-wind crosswinds do the rest. It plays inside the Iberostar complex and takes outside play, which makes it one of Bávaro's most accessible serious rounds.
