About Terravista Golf Course Golf Course
Terravista Golf Course in Trancoso, Bahia, is one of Brazil's most spectacular and visually dramatic golf experiences — a clifftop course perched above the Atlantic Ocean on the UNESCO-protected Costa do Descobrimento (Coast of Discovery), where Brazil was first sighted by Portuguese explorer Pedro Álvares Cabral in 1500. Designed by American architect Dan Blankenship, the course routes along Atlantic cliffs, through native Mata Atlântica forest, and across the green plateau tops that characterise this stretch of the Bahia coast. The signature hole is a dramatic par-3 playing directly over the Atlantic Ocean cliff edge to a green surrounded by coastal dunes — one of the most photographed golf holes in South America. The surrounding Trancoso village is a chic artistic enclave attracting Brazil's cultural elite, and several international celebrities and designers maintain residences nearby. The combination of world-class cliff golf, UNESCO-protected landscape, and Bahia's sophisticated bohemian culture makes Terravista a genuinely singular destination.
