Golf in Cyprus is full of possibilities
Although Cyprus golf isn’t as well-known as some of its other European cousins, it shouldn’t be overlooked by golfers who value a tremendous golfing climate combined with great views and most importantly, incredible courses.
Cyprus is home to fewer courses than other European countries, however, don’t discount it as Cyprus is a location which values quality over quantity.
The PGA National at Aphrodite Hills remains the crowning jewel of Cyprus golf. The course is testament to the work the country has put into its courses, and golfers will especially love the immaculate fairways, glorious views and excellent facilities.
A Golfbreaks customer favourite is the Secret Valley Golf Club. Opened in 1996, this inland course is surrounded by nature and has recently been improved, meaning it is now at the absolute peak of its power as one of the best courses on the island.
The next big golfing destination
Cyprus is the ideal destination for a golf holiday providing a range of great courses with stunning views and a perfect year-round subtropical climate.
Paphos is just a four-and-a-half-hour flight from numerous UK airports and there is only a two-hour time difference from the UK.
If you are looking for last-minute winter sun, average temperatures in Cyprus reach over double figures in January and February, while temperatures in other months rarely exceed 30˚C.
PGA National at Aphrodite Hills was designed by Cabell Robinson and offers stunning panoramic views of the crystal-clear ocean below. The course is often ranked as the best in Cyprus.
Elea Golf Club offers an equally as impressive layout. The course only opened in 2010 but has since earned high praise, with Golf World Magazine ranking it as ‘one of the world’s most exciting new golf courses’.
The range of great golf to be played in Cyprus, combined with the surrounding beauty and ideal climate creates the perfect setting for a golf break.
