Puerto Cancun Golf Course

Overview: Puerto Cancun Golf Course is an 18-hole par-72 Tom Weiskopf design between mangroves, natural canals and the Caribbean Sea. The current operator lists 7,241 yards and five tee markers per hole, making the course accessible in format while retaining championship length from the back tees. Water is not a decorative feature here: canals and wetlands cut through the routing, while the marina and coast create changing sightlines. The result is a distinctly urban-coastal Cancún course with a strong ecological setting.

History: The course was built as part of Puerto Cancún, a large marina and mixed-use development that places golf beside canals, residences, hotels and the Caribbean shoreline. Tom Weiskopf’s design made the course a central amenity of that waterfront plan, and current official material continues to identify the same 18-hole routing. The reviewed sources confirm the present course but do not establish one dependable opening year, so the historical profile focuses on its role in the Puerto Cancún development rather than inventing a date.

Did You Know? The 18th green sits on an island in Puerto Cancún’s major canal, making the finish an unmistakable signature of the course. The 14th also runs parallel to the shoreline for more than 400 yards and is described as a feature hole with Caribbean views. Together, the two holes show the routing’s range: one asks for a precise water finish, while the other uses the coast and distance to create a long visual challenge.
