Can I play Danang Golf Club (Dunes Course)?
Yes — the Greg Norman-designed Dunes course is a public, pay-and-play resort layout that welcomes visiting golfers every day, no membership needed. You book a green fee and tee time directly or through a Da Nang golf operator; it is one of Vietnam's most acclaimed rounds and a staple of central-coast golf trips. The course sits on the coast beside Non Nuoc Beach, now part of the expanded Legend Danang complex.
How to book: Book online or through a golf-tour agent; a day or two's notice is usually sufficient outside peak season. Rates are typically all-in, covering a caddie and a shared buggy, and it is customary to tip the caddie. Weekends and high season cost more.
About Danang Golf Club (Dunes Course)
Opened in 2010 to a Greg Norman design with lead architect Harley Kruse, the Dunes course at Danang Golf Club was voted one of the world's best new courses of its year and remains among Vietnam's most celebrated layouts. Stretching to around 7,190 yards along the central-coast sands beside Non Nuoc Beach, it is a genuine links in spirit — firm, fast fairways bleeding into wild vegetation, blown-out bunkers, waste areas and seaside swales. Now part of the expanded Legend Danang complex (which added a Jack Nicklaus course), the Dunes remains fully public and pay-and-play, welcoming visiting golfers daily. Its coastal drama and quality conditioning make it a highlight of any Da Nang golf trip.

The short par-3 16th plays to a raised green framed by the East Sea and the Cham Islands, the standout on a links routing of blown-out bunkers, firm fairways and wild seaside vegetation.
