## About the course

Shin Minami Aichi Country Club's Mihama Course sits on hilly ground near Noma in Mihama, on the Chita Peninsula south of Nagoya, overlooking Ise Bay. Opened in 1992, it was designed by Tadashi Sato with input from Japanese golfing great Ayako Okamoto, who shaped several holes that reward thoughtful, technical play. The par-72 layout measures 6,921 yards from the back tees, and since 2007 it has hosted the JLPGA Tour's Tokai Classic.

### Beauty and difficulty in equal measure, _with a resort feel just an hour from Nagoya._

The closing 18th, with a pond to the left and three bunkers in the middle of the fairway, is a fitting finish for a tournament course. Bent-grass greens, a 250-yard range and a garden-view bath round out the experience. This is a members' club, so visitors need a member's introduction. The Chita Peninsula makes a fine day out: Noma is known for its beaches, and the fishing islands of Himakajima and Shinojima, famous for octopus and pufferfish, are a short ferry ride from nearby Morozaki. By car the course is roughly an hour from central Nagoya via the Minami Chita Road.
