A small bunker front right and an elevated bunker on the back left protect the green.

With tees along the Atlantic Ocean, this 403-yard dogleg right par 4 plays into the wind, with a natural coral and sand hazard that must be negotiated along the right side.

With all the tees located on the top edge of the bluff and virtual 360 degree view of the Punta Espada Golf Course and the Caribbean Sea, the adrenalin should be running high by now. A downhill tee shot will need to be struck well due to the wind, this dogleg left will play longer than its yardage shows. A series of three bunkers varying in size begin short of the landing area and extend midway to the green. It will be difficult to get up and down if a shot is hit into any of these bunkers.

The player with any indecision should select an extra club and play to the right of the green to a small chipping area. The large green surface is contoured to the ocean ever present along the entire side of the hole. A spine works off the support on the right and runs into the green separating the front and back portions and favors those players that just make the carry of the ocean in front.
