Golf in Croatia: What You Can Actually Play, and What to Expect

Croatia gets mentioned in the same breath as Portugal, Spain, and Turkey when golf travel destinations come up, but the comparison doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. Croatia has one golf resort built to the standard that international golfers expect, a historic curiosity on a national park island, and a scattering of nine-hole and executive courses […]

Golf in Egypt: Pyramids, the Red Sea, and Some of Africa’s Most Underrated Fairways

Egypt is not the first name that comes up when golfers swap notes on winter sun destinations — Spain, Portugal, and the UAE usually take that spotlight. But quietly, over the past three decades, Egypt has built one of the most distinctive golf landscapes on earth: championship courses shaped by Gary Player, Nick Faldo, and […]

A Golfer’s Guide to Cabo San Lucas: Where the Desert Meets the Sea

There are golf destinations, and then there is Cabo San Lucas. At the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, two oceans collide — the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez — and the courses built along that meeting point are unlike anything else in the game. Fairways run beside sand dunes, tee boxes perch […]

A New Chapter on an Old Fairway: Inside the Hyatt Regency Vilamoura Algarve

For more than three decades, the hotel at the heart of Vilamoura’s golfing quarter was known simply as the Dom Pedro. In early 2026, that chapter closed and a new one began: following a top-to-bottom renovation, the property reopened as the Hyatt Regency Vilamoura Algarve, ahead of its original schedule. It’s a rebrand with real […]

For decades, golf courses have often been criticised for their environmental impact, particularly regarding water consumption and land use. While some older facilities still face sustainability challenges, the reality is that many modern golf courses are becoming leaders in environmental stewardship. Advances in irrigation technology, habitat restoration, water recycling, and ecological course design are transforming […]

Your Golf Vacation in Saint-Tropez

Saint-Tropez has been seducing artists, aristocrats, and the international jet set since the 1960s, but beyond the yacht-lined Old Port and Pampelonne’s beach clubs lies a quieter, equally seductive pleasure: golf framed by umbrella pines, cork oaks, and views across the Mediterranean. A golf trip here isn’t about ticking off championship layouts in isolation; it’s […]

From Vineyard to Fairway: Wine-Infused Golf Trips

Golf and wine share more than a reputation for leisurely afternoons. Both reward patience, precision, and an appreciation for terroir — the idea that place shapes character, whether in a Cabernet Sauvignon or a links-style fairway carved into chalky soil. Across Europe, South Africa, and the Americas, a growing number of resorts have built entire […]

Golf & Bee Sanctuaries: A Surprising Partnership

At first glance, a manicured fairway and a wild beehive seem to belong to opposite worlds. One is the definition of controlled, groomed landscape; the other thrives on chaos, tangled wildflowers and untouched soil. Yet across Europe and beyond, golf courses have quietly become some of the most effective sanctuaries for bees and other pollinators […]

Best Multi-Country Golf Tours in Europe

Golf in Europe has never respected borders quite the way its geography suggests it should. A links round in County Down can be followed by a warm-up swing in the Highlands within a day’s travel, and a morning tee time in the Algarve can lead to an afternoon flight that lands you at a Robert […]

Tee Off in Tuscany: Golfing Italy’s Most Picturesque Countryside

There is a particular kind of golf that only Tuscany can offer — a round where the scenery competes so fiercely with the game itself that you might find yourself pausing on the fairway, putter in hand, just to stare. Cypress trees rise like green sentinels against a burnt-sienna sky. Rolling vineyards border the rough. […]

A Luxurious Escape to Finca Cortesin

Tucked into the rolling hills of southern Spain, roughly midway between Marbella and Sotogrande, Finca Cortesin is the kind of place that renders superlatives almost inadequate. Opened in March 2006 and sprawling across 532 acres of Mediterranean countryside, it arrived on the Costa del Sol with quiet confidence — and proceeded to redefine what a […]

Why Comporta, Portugal, Is the Next Big Golf Destination

There is a stretch of the Portuguese coastline, about an hour south of Lisbon, where umbrella pine forests give way to sweeping sand dunes, rice paddies shimmer in the Atlantic breeze, and the Sado Estuary glitters at golden hour. This is Comporta — and quietly, almost inevitably, it has become the most exciting new address […]

Tee Off in Style: Park Hyatt Marrakech

Morocco has long held a quiet fascination for golfers — a land where the scent of orange blossom drifts across the morning air, where the distant silhouette of snow-capped peaks frames every approach shot, and where the ancient rhythms of a medina feel worlds away from the tranquillity of a well-kept fairway. Marrakech, for decades […]

Golf in Bordeaux: A Guide to Cabot Bordeaux

There is a particular kind of golf trip that transcends the game itself — one where the fairways are just the beginning and every hour away from the course is equally rich with discovery. A golf trip to Bordeaux is exactly that kind of experience. Woven through vine-draped landscapes, flanked by grand châteaux and filled […]

Mazagan Beach & Golf Resort, perched on Morocco’s Atlantic coast in the historic region of El Jadida, is exactly that kind of place. It […]
