Hayama Kokusai C.C.

Set high on the hills of Hayama, this course combines stunning views with unbeatable accessibility. From the fairways, golfers can take in sweeping panoramas of Tokyo Bay and the Boso Peninsula to the east, and Mount Fuji and the Hakone mountains to the west. The elevated location keeps the air fresh and cool even in summer, while the mild winter climate makes it playable year-round. Only about 50 minutes by car from central Tokyo — or easily reached from Zushi or Yokohama — Hayama Kokusai is the perfect weekend escape where every shot comes with a view worth remembering.

Hayama Kokusai Country Club offers 36 holes across two distinct layouts: the Diamond Course and the Emerald Course. The Diamond Course, designed by Koki Yasuda and Yuji Kodera, is known for its dramatic elevation changes and bold, open fairways. Its signature 4th hole offers a thrilling downhill drive overlooking Tokyo Bay — a postcard moment for any golfer. The Emerald Course, designed by Shiro Akaboshi, provides a more technical experience, with undulating fairways, blind shots, and a layout that rewards precision and creativity. Whether you’re in the mood for power golf or a strategic round, Hayama Kokusai lets you choose your adventure.

A round here doesn’t end at the 18th hole — it continues in the club’s elegant European-style clubhouse. The restaurant offers Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine, served with panoramic views of the Hayama landscape. Whether you’re winding down with a quiet lunch or celebrating a special day with friends, the atmosphere is both refined and relaxed. VIP rooms and event spaces make it ideal for business outings or small tournaments. At Hayama Kokusai, the beauty of the setting, the warmth of the staff, and the taste of the food all add up to one perfect golf day in Japan’s coastal hills.
