Amami Country Club

Amami Country Club has operated as a semi-private facility on Amami Oshima since 1986, playing 6,950 yards from the back tees with a 73.1 rating and 123 slope, offering visitors a genuinely tropical golf experience far from the Kyushu mainland. The island of Amami Oshima sits roughly midway between Kyushu and Okinawa, administratively part of Kagoshima prefecture, and is known for its subtropical rainforest, coral reefs, and distinct Amami culture and cuisine, quite different in character from the rest of the prefecture. Facilities include golf carts, caddies, club rentals, a driving range, putting green, and teaching professionals, along with an on-site restaurant, and the club accommodates metal spikes. Being one of the only golf courses on Amami Oshima, the club serves a genuinely captive audience of local residents and visiting tourists drawn to the island's beaches and diving spots. The island's warm, humid climate keeps the course playable year-round, and its remote setting makes it a memorable stop for golfers looking to combine a round with a genuinely different side of Kagoshima prefecture. Golfers planning an Amami Oshima island trip through CoGolfers can add a round at Amami Country Club to the itinerary, and the community is a good place to find others visiting this remote, subtropical part of Japan.
