Hella golf course is a great course, when you play at Hella golf course, you will see that it has black sand in their sand traps. The black sand can also play a big role if you miss a fairway, as it lies around most of the fairways. The black sand can be challenging, and a pro tip from us, if you end up in the sand, is to try your best at getting the ball out on the fairway in as few shots as possible. An interesting fact about Hella golf course is it is the only course in Iceland that has a rectangular green. The rectangular green is on the 4th hole which is a long par 3.
