MOOREA GREEN PEARL GOLF COURSE
🇵🇫 Temae, Mo'orea, PF
Designed by Jack Nicklaus

Moorea Green Pearl Golf Course occupies a dramatic coastal site on the northeast shore of Mo'orea, French Polynesia's second-most-visited island. Designed by Jack Nicklaus and opened in 2007, the course sits on Temae Beach between the lagoon and the island's volcanic interior, with views across the water to Tahiti. The layout incorporates the island's natural topography, including ancient lava flows, coconut groves, and tropical vegetation that frame the playing corridors. The routing takes advantage of the property's elevation changes and proximity to both mountain and ocean.
The course measures approximately 6,000 meters from the back tees and plays as an 18-hole championship layout, though it operates with a distinctive character shaped by its remote island setting. Several holes run along or near the lagoon, where trade winds and the surrounding peaks influence club selection and strategy. The design reflects Nicklaus's approach to working with dramatic natural sites, incorporating native plantings and preserving views of Mo'orea's signature mountain silhouettes.
As French Polynesia's only 18-hole regulation golf course, Moorea Green Pearl serves both resort guests and local players. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse positioned to take advantage of the coastal setting. The course represents an unusual combination of championship golf design and South Pacific island environment, where the isolation and tropical climate create maintenance and operational challenges distinct from continental resort courses.
