La Moye Golf Club

La Moye is a challenging, though rewarding course, and suited to those that play golf fairly regularly. Perched above the dramatic coastline of St Ouen’s Bay, it offers an unforgettable golfing experience.

For visiting golfers, weekday tee times generally offer the best availability as weekends tend to be busier with member play. An evening round is one of the very best ways to experience La Moye, particularly on a beautiful summer’s day when the sun begins to set over the bay.

As a traditional club, La Moye has a smart dress code and values golfing etiquette. Denim is not permitted, shirts should have a collar and be tucked in, and appropriate golf shoes are required on the course. If you plan to visit the clubhouse afterwards, smart footwear is also expected.

Our Concierge team will be delighted to assist with requesting a tee time at La Moye Golf Club during your stay at The Atlantic Hotel. Please note that all tee times are subject to the club’s availability and booking policies. As a private members’ club, access may be limited by member play, competitions and club events, particularly during busy periods, so tee times cannot be guaranteed.

La Moye has a handicap limit of 24 for men and 30 for women. The course is often particularly busy on Tuesday mornings, throughout Wednesday, and on Thursday mornings due to regular competitions and member fixtures, so we recommend avoiding these periods where possible.

To give yourself the best chance of securing a tee time, we recommend requesting your preferred date as early as possible. If La Moye is unavailable during your stay, we will be pleased to recommend and help arrange play at one of Jersey’s other outstanding courses, including the Royal Jersey Golf Club.

Top Tips

La Moye is a links-style course set up in the cliffs of St Brelade with spectacular views of the five mile beach of St Ouen. It starts with a couple of par 3’s in the first 3 holes, which makes it tricky, but you will be rewarded with some par 5’s after that.

The 4th, 6th and 7th holes give you some spectacular views of the beaches, the back nine of La Moye golf course, and on a clear day you’ll be able to see Guernsey in the distance. It does have a tendency to be quite windy, so you need to take advantage of the holes that are set slightly more inland in the middle of the round. The back nine is the tougher side as it has some longer par 3’s and is a little more exposed to the windy conditions. The four final holes are the best on the Island in terms of golf, and views.

The 15th hole is a par 4 which runs alongside the sand dunes, and there is nothing obstructing your view of the beach. It is also a great hole as it tends to play shorter than the yardage, but isn’t a guaranteed birdie and requires some good course management.

The back tee on the 16th hole has the most incredible view you will see on a golf course and allows you to see Jersey at its best.

The 17th and 18th holes are tough, but great finishing holes. The 17th tee shot can play long into the wind, but the fairway is pretty wide and just needs a good drive. I always like to play the safe option with my approach shot here. The green is slightly elevated and surrounded by bunkers. If you miss to the left of the green you will be left with a very tricky chip. My advice here is to opt for the front right portion of the green no matter where the flag is.

I would suggest taking your medicine with the 18th tee shot. There are two pot bunkers down the left-hand side of the fairway which are always tempting to take on, but I usually play it safe and aim down the right side of the fairway. The second shot gives you a great view coming into the clubhouse where people can see you finish your round. I am always pleased with two pars to finish a good day at La Moye golf course.
