Travel tips for golf holidays in March
With so many options in March, from the season beginning in the UK, to optimal temperature's in the Middle East there are few things you'll need to get right. Here are some of our Golf Travel Expert's best travel tips for golf trips in March:
- Take advantage of the shoulder season:
March is a shoulder season in many destinations, meaning you can often find better prices, flights, hotels and tee times while enjoying fewer crowds at major attractions and courses. It’s a great time to explore popular cities without the peak summer rush.
- Look out for seasonal highlights:
March offers some fantastic seasonal experiences depending on where you travel. It’s an excellent time for safaris in South Africa, as the late summer period brings lush landscapes and great game-viewing opportunities. The shift in weather also means there are also spectacular desert wildflower blooms in the US across Arizona and Nevada.
- Check local holidays and spring break dates:
Spring break periods vary by country and region, and they can significantly impact prices and availability, especially in beach destinations and major cities. A quick check before booking can help you avoid higher costs and crowded resorts.
- Research beach destinations carefully:
Not all “sunny” destinations are warm enough for swimming in March. Southern Spain, the Canary Islands, Dubai, and parts of Southeast Asia typically offer more reliable sunshine than the Mediterranean mainland.
