This has to be one of the smallest sand bunkers in the world.  The width looks just over 1 foot???

Not that small Joel, probably  due to the elevation and choice of lens. The double green covers a lot of space.

Aidan,

Is this Paraiso del Mar set to open new Arthur Hills course in La Paz, Mexico?

Keep it up and you are going to turn this website into Arthur Hills fans.

Did you play or just photpgraph the course? Curious to get your thoughts on how the course played. Been there a couple of times as the course was being built but have not played it as yet.

Greg,

Didn't get to play. It looks like a fun course in a great location. It will be a little more challenging when the winds blow and some of the elevated greens will call for some precise iron play. There is a lot of variety in the holes and some very interesting green complexes. It has a great practice facility. Also, the pot bunkers give it a different look.

Aidan.
