Playing Tips

Account for elevation changes across the rolling, hilly layout and adjust club selection accordingly on both tee shots and approaches.

Two bentgrass greens hold well and can run a bit quick, so focus on accurate distance control and conservative lag putts when below the hole.

Thoughtfully placed hazards reward accuracy off the tee, so prioritize fairway position over raw distance to leave easier approach shots.

Because the course is near the sea, winds and breezes can shift—check wind direction on elevated tees and aim accordingly.

At a moderate overall length with strategic hazard placement, conservative course management and smart layups will often yield better scores than aggressive shot-making.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The Hyogo coastal-inland climate brings humid, warm summers with a June rainy season and occasional typhoons in late summer, while winters are generally mild with little snow; sea breezes can create variable winds on exposed holes.

Best Season to Play

Spring (April–May) and autumn (October–November) offer mild temperatures, stable weather, and pleasant course conditions, while the rainy season and typhoon-prone late summer are less ideal.
