Tail of the Whale Hole 3B

Hole 3B, known as "Tail of the Whale," is the signature par-3 hole of the Pacífico course at Punta Mita. Located on a natural island in the Pacific Ocean, this 180-yard hole features a forced carry over water and is considered one of the most spectacular golf holes in the world. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, who has cited it as his favorite hole on the course, Hole 3B offers an unforgettable playing experience with its island green setting and panoramic ocean views.

While not officially part of the standard 18-hole round, this optional 19th hole serves as an exciting challenge for golfers seeking to test their long-shot precision and accuracy. The hole's dramatic oceanside location, combined with its technical demands and natural beauty overlooking the Pacific, makes it a signature attraction of the Punta Mita Golf Club. The precision required to navigate the forced carry and land on the island green rewards skilled execution while providing memorable photo opportunities and friendly wagering opportunities among playing partners.
