Avalon Golf Estate

Sculpted into the lush forested central plateau of Mauritius by acclaimed architect and former European Tour professional Peter Matkovich, Avalon Golf Estate stands apart as the island's most elevated and visually commanding golf experience. Sitting at 400 metres above sea level on the volcanic slopes of the dormant Grand Bassin volcano, surrounded by working tea plantations, Avalon is the highest golf course in Mauritius. The views of the southern coastline, lagoon and the azure Indian Ocean are visible from all 18 holes — on a clear day, simply breathtaking. The course's name evokes the mythical Arthurian isle of abundance, and the landscape does nothing to dispel that sense of otherworldly privilege.
