Mazatl'n Offers a World of Golf Opportunities

MAZATLN, Mexico, Jan. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ Mazatln is one of Mexico's most popular golf destinations, and El Cid Vacations Club is in the center of the action with its trio of world-class courses on tap at El Cid Golf & Country Club. By far the most scenic of the three is the Marina nine, a creation of golf legend Lee Trevino. Golfers of all skill levels face a challenge but can have plenty of fun at the same time with a diversity of holes and unique shots that go over ponds and canals.

Everyone who plays the Marina nine has a story about the 8 th hole's spectacular design and unique topographical challenges. Number 8 features a large pond early in the fairway and then golfers need to negotiate eight sand traps to reach the green. It is indeed a "golfer's hole" and something to remember for a lifetime.

The Moro nine, according to El Cid Vacations Club, offers a bit more of a challenge, with golfers facing a pair of quite difficult holes in sequence at numbers 7 and 8. The majestic views and breathtaking scenery go a long way toward countering the challenging nine holes of Moro. Even so, it takes plenty of towering palm trees and gorgeous ponds to help a golfer survive "the Monster," an apt nickname for the 8 th hole at Moro, a par-5, 611-yard goliath that makes even professionals blush when they face it in tournaments. El Cid Vacations Club staff note that the Moro nine-hole course has a reputation as being one of the best courses in all Mazatln.

Rounding out the course offerings at El Cid Golf & Country Club, the Castilla nine-hole is a bit more forgiving for golfers of all skill levels. The visually gorgeous trees and other vegetation make for a spectacular scene on the Castilla, where stunning views and tranquil settings put any golfer at ease, and make even the more difficult holes seem that much easier. Regular El Cid Vacations Club members often point to the third hole as Castilla's signature. With its incredible water challenge all along the right side of the hole, amateurs and experts have to give it their all to make the green without getting wet.

Golfers are an enthusiastic group of travelers who know the secrets of Mazatln often lie right out in plain view, on the golf courses of El Cid Vacations Club, where beginners, experts and everyone in between can savor a golf experience like no other.
