The first Bonairean Golf Club "Piedra So" is founded on April 14, 2004.
Imagine playing in a complete natural local environment, which means no grass grown fairways, sophisticated greens, but fairways with the spares local vegetation and "browns", existing from local soil, instead of greens. These browns are maintained as often as possible, so putting becomes not too difficult. Putting on the "browns" stays however an unpredictable challenge. The founders of the course kept as main goal, to keep the landscaping as natural as possible. Not hurting any vegetation in order to make this an ecologic course. They completed their goal very successful, as the players even have to challenge some water obstacles. In dry season these water obstacles are marked by yellow poles.

The reconstruction of the golf course is completed.
Under the inspiring lead and supervision of our excellent technician Mr. Harm Streefkerk from StreefkerkTEC n.v. the reconstruction of the course has recently been completed.
The new layout of the course is already presented to the members.
Above the lay-out from our new links course of eightteen holes. It is a par 72 course with a total length from the men's tees of 6,175 yards (5.557 meters) and from the senior/ladies tees 5,378 yards (4.840 meters) The course is perfectly shaped into the existing environment which gives this course an unique ecologic flavour.
Playing her has already proved to be very challenging. Even for the more skilled players. Our experience is that most guestplayers with low handicaps are challenged to reach there handicap score. Often without succes !
