About This Course

Ariake Country Club is a scenic hilltop golf course overlooking the Ariake Sea in Fukuoka. The course features 18 holes with gentle elevation changes and mainly flat fairways. Strategically placed bunkers and two seasonal greens add challenge and variety. The back nine, especially holes 14 to 18, and the stretch from holes 5 to 7 on the front nine require careful play for the best results. With a somewhat shorter inner course and modern carts equipped with advanced navigation systems, players of all levels can enjoy a flexible and engaging round in a beautiful setting.

Playing Tips

The stretch from holes 5–7 on the front nine and the closing holes on the back nine (14–18) reward careful, accurate play rather than pure distance.

Strategically placed bunkers protect landing areas and approaches, so prioritize tee placement to leave the easiest angle into the green.

Two seasonal greens (zoysia/koma and bentgrass) mean green speed and firmness can vary greatly, so test a short putt early and adjust your reads.

Overall gentle elevation changes mean club selection matters—take an extra club for uphill approaches and be prepared to fly the ball a bit longer on downhill shots.

Exposed holes toward the Ariake Sea can be breezy, so check wind direction on the tee and consider a lower trajectory or extra club when wind is against you.
