Numazu Golf Club

沼津ゴルフクラブ

A 27-hole Numazu course overlooking Suruga Bay, with three contrasting nines and a notable clubhouse designed by Kisho Kurokawa’s practice.

Three key characteristics

  • Three nines provide distinct strategic and visual character.
  • Suruga Bay and Ashitaka views create a strong Numazu setting.
  • The Kisho Kurokawa clubhouse gives the property architectural distinction.

Course overview

Numazu Golf Club combines the Ashitaka, Izu and Suruga nines across elevated hill terrain. The official guide distinguishes long and strategic Ashitaka, varied Izu and the more open Suruga nine with water and mature trees. The clubhouse, designed by Kisho Kurokawa Architect & Associates, adds a clear architectural identity to the visit.

Terrain and layout

The elevated routing alternates broader outlooks with tree-lined and water-influenced holes. Ashitaka asks for length and accuracy, Izu changes rhythm, and Suruga looks open while using ponds and trees to narrow decisions.

Strategy and difficulty

The official course guide repeatedly emphasises fairway position and exact distance control. The three-nine sequence can be selected to fit a group, but none should be treated as purely scenic.

Why play

  • Play three nines with clearly different demands. Add Suruga Bay scenery without losing strategic substance. Use Numazu as a practical transition between Izu and Fuji-area golf.

Playing format and facilities

The verified course total is 27 holes, 10,056 yards and par 107 with a two-green system. Current cart, caddie and visitor arrangements require direct confirmation.

Representative holes

Suruga 4 and 7 require accurate shots over water; Ashitaka’s longer par fours ask for both distance and fairway control.

History, tournaments and distinction

The official course credits Muramatsu Construction for design and construction, with supervision by Torakichi Nakamura and Asao Ishii. The clubhouse was designed by Kisho Kurokawa Architect & Associates.

Miramar assessment

A useful bridge between an Izu programme and the Fuji–Gotemba corridor, particularly for groups interested in both course variety and Japanese architecture.

Route planning

Numazu can sit between an Izu stay and a Fuji or Gotemba programme. Hotel and vehicle direction should be chosen around the next round rather than by city name alone.

Booking note

Booking availability is subject to the course’s current visitor policies and final confirmation.
