Numazu Golf Club

静岡県, Japan

Numazu Golf Club is a 27-hole facility located in Numazu, Shizuoka, situated on the slopes of Mount Ashitaka with views overlooking the Suruga Bay. The course is divided into three distinct 9-hole layouts: the Ashitaka Course, the Izu Course, and the Suruga Course. These丘陵 (hilly) courses are designed to take advantage of the natural terrain and seasonal changes of the mountain setting. The club's architecture is defined by the design philosophy of Kisho Kurokawa, whose principles guide the construction of the clubhouse and its integration with the surrounding nature. The facility aims to provide a high-quality golfing environment that coexists with the natural landscape, extending this ethos to the playing surfaces themselves. The layout caters to a range of players, from beginners to veterans, through various event plans and open competitions hosted by the club.
