Origins

Marina Bay was developed to provide public-access golf in Singapore and opened in November 2006. Operated by NCI Golf, a subsidiary of NTUC Club, it occupied leased land at Marina Bay/Tanjong Rhu and became the country's only fully public 18-hole course.

Did You Know?
The course included Singapore's only par-six golf hole.

Design Philosophy

Phil Jacobs created a links-styled layout on the exposed site, using extensive bunkering and an unusual mix of hole lengths. The most distinctive feature was the par-six fourth hole, while night-lighting allowed rounds beyond normal daylight hours.

Development

The facility operated for about 18 years. Singapore's long-term land-use plans meant the lease was not renewed, and the course played its final rounds on 30 June 2024.

Recognition

During its operating life Marina Bay received recognition in Asian golf awards for public golf and value, while its public-access model made it unusual within Singapore's predominantly private-club golf market.

Today

The golf course is permanently closed and the former site is intended for redevelopment. Historical information remains useful for archival purposes, but tee times are no longer available.
