Golf Lacs Saidia: Island Greens and Water Hazards on Morocco’s Mediterranean Coast
At the eastern edge of Morocco’s Mediterranean coast, Golf Lacs Saidia is a water-shaped 18-hole course within the Saidia resort area. Designed by Francisco Ségales and opened in 2009, the Par 72 layout is built around lakes, island greens and a strong finish at the 18th hole.
A resort course shaped by water
Madaëf Golfs describes Golf Lacs as a course where water is central to the design. The greens are arranged as islands, while lakes and bunkers influence the safe landing areas and the route into the putting surfaces.
The operator lists the course at 18 holes, Par 72 and 6,160 metres, designed by Francisco Ségales and opened in 2009. It records an eight-hectare lake, 75 bunkers and a total site area of 63 hectares. The Royal Moroccan Golf Federation also identifies Ségales as the designer and lists the course as Par 72. The signature finish comes at the 18th hole, which the operator describes as a dramatic conclusion to the round. With water hazards and island greens in play, accurate placement and thoughtful club selection are recurring themes.
Precision around the lakes and island greens
Golf Lacs is not a course where distance alone solves the problem. Water and bunker placement demand a clear strategy, particularly when approaching the island greens.
Choose the safe side
Water hazards and island greens can turn a small miss into a difficult recovery. Pick a landing area that leaves a comfortable next shot rather than chasing a risky line.
Prepare for a memorable finish
The operator highlights the 18th as a spectacular final hole. Keep enough concentration for the closing stretch, where course management can matter as much as execution.

The course’s identity is built around water: lakes, island greens and bunkers create a recognisable visual style and a strategic test. The last hole is designed to leave a strong final impression on the round.
