Golf Club Saint-Martinois sits in the Crau plain near Saint-Martin-de-Crau, a small commune in the Bouches-du-Rhône department between Arles and Salon-de-Provence. This area of Provence occupies a distinctive landscape characterized by flat, stony terrain that transitions from the agricultural plains to the drier expanses of the Crau steppe. The course operates within this regional context, offering golf in an environment shaped by the Provençal climate of hot summers, mild winters, and the occasional mistral wind sweeping down the Rhône valley. The layout reflects the relatively level topography common to courses built on the Crau plain, where designers work with modest elevation changes and often incorporate water features and strategic bunkering to define holes and create challenge. Trees and vegetation plantings provide definition and frame playing corridors across what would otherwise be open terrain. Courses in this part of Provence typically emphasize accuracy and course management rather than dramatic landforms. Saint-Martin-de-Crau itself remains a quiet agricultural community, and the golf club serves both local members and visitors exploring the broader Provence region. The area's proximity to Arles, with its Roman heritage, and the Camargue wetlands to the south places the course within reach of tourists combining golf with cultural and natural attractions. The club functions as a regional facility rather than a destination course, providing golf in a part of France better known for its history, cuisine, and Mediterranean character than for championship-level golf architecture.
