BlackSeaRama Golf & Villas
Endless sea view from the height of 200 meters towards the magnificent and extremely diverse bay from Cape Kaliakra to Cape Galata of the Black Sea – this is BlackSeaRama, the first championship signature golf course in Bulgaria – 18 holes, par 72, length of 6648 meters – and the first completed project of Gary Player in Eastern Europe.
From a flat terrain, a magnificent classical cliff-top links golf course is created, with intimacy at very each of the fairways and with greens, often exceeding the regular sizes. The whole design is fulfilled with respect towards the player, as it gives him/her a maximum of chance for a good round at a high-class golf course, where the wind – as it is usual when close to the sea – is often a significant factor.
This award-winning course – Best new golf course in the world for 2009 (in the international category of the Golf Inc. magazine contest) is destined to be explored and to reveal the wonders of the game.
