The course

Playable, characterful, unforgettable

A Mark Muller design that reopened in 2010, walkable and welcoming, with a sting in the tail.

The design

Reimagined by Mark Muller

When the original course made way for the Cape Town Stadium ahead of 2010, architect Mark Muller was given a blank canvas alongside the new Green Point Urban Park. The result is a modern layout that doubles as a biodiversity showcase.

Wide, forgiving fairways and large greens make the Met accessible to amateurs, while subtle contouring and the ever-present coastal wind give better players plenty to think about.

  • 9 holes played to 14 separate greens and dual tees for a full 18
  • Two par 5s at holes 3 and 12
  • A par-3 finish over water to a green beneath the clubhouse

What you will remember

The water finish

A par 3 played across water to a green tucked beneath the clubhouse. Nerve and a smooth swing required.

Parkland in the city

Bent-grass greens and kikuyu fairways set against four species of local rough and the new urban park.

The Cape wind

When the south-easter blows, club selection becomes the whole game. The course never plays the same way twice.
