About this course
Amirauté Golf occupies a coastal setting in Tourgéville, in the Normandy region of northern France, near the English Channel. The course was designed by Bill Baker, an American architect known for his work across Europe in the latter half of the twentieth century. The club takes its name from the French naval heritage of the region, reflecting the maritime character of the Normandy coast. The layout reflects Baker's approach to routing through existing terrain, working with the undulating topography typical of the Norman landscape. The course moves through a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with the proximity to the coast influencing both the setting and the wind conditions that define play. The design balances strategic challenge with playability across the membership, a hallmark of Baker's philosophy. Amirauté serves as a private members' club and has developed a following within the French golf community. The course has hosted regional competitions and club championships over its history, though it remains primarily a venue for member play and visiting groups. The club's location within easy reach of the Normandy coast and its cultural landmarks makes it a natural gathering point for golfers in the region.

Getting there
Amirauté Golf is most readily reached via Paris-Orly (ORY) or Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG), followed by a graceful two-hour drive northwest through the Norman countryside toward the Normandy coast. The route descends gently from the Île-de-France plateau into rolling pastureland dotted with half-timbered villages and apple orchards, before the landscape opens to reveal the Channel-facing cliffs and the refined seaside resort atmosphere of Deauville-Trouville. Private aviation clients may land at nearby Deauville-Saint-Gatien Airport (DOA), which sits mere minutes from the club's clifftop perch overlooking the Côte Fleurie. The final kilometers wind through Tourgéville's elegant Belle Époque architecture and manicured gardens, delivering you to a course that commands both the sea breeze and the storied heritage of French coastal golf.
