Sacard Beach is home to 2 of the 6 most exclusive country clubs in Caphiria - the Aroris Club and the Occhrotta. Established in 1888 as a as a polo club by a group of prominent noblemen, the Occhrotta is notorious for being closely associated with the [[Tervarinus Estate]]. Consequently, it is well known for its strict membership policy. For almost half a century, admission remains closed; only sons, daughters and spouses of existing members are allowed to join (the latter lose their status as members if they seek divorce). The golf courses at the Occhrotta have hosted several world cups and tournaments, and are considered "one of the finest and most classic courses in continental Sarpedon." The club has been subsequently referred to as "the most exclusive and segregated club not only in Caphiria, but possibly in the world, where one can fraternize with the restrictive high society of the Imperium". Besides golf, the Occhrotta has a long-recorded history and sections in the fields of equestrianism, polo, tennis, padel and croquet. | |||
