What makes a golf holiday in Greece so special?
Greece isn't often considered as a first choice by golfers looking for a golfing destination, however, golfers who take a punt on this southern European nation are often left pleasantly surprised by the quality and style of Greece golf courses.
What makes golf in Greece truly special is the sheer beauty of the nation. Often bathed in sunlight, the courses do a great job of showing of Greece’s incredible natural landscapes and coastlines. When playing golf in Greece, golfers will want to check out the two magnificent courses at Costa Navarino.
The Dunes Course is a Bernhard Langer design and the first signature course of Greece and it certainly shows it. The course measures in at 6581-yards in length at a par-72, offering golfers both exceptional views of the sea and nearby river, whilst its tall rough, bunkers and dunes make life difficult if you come off the fairways.
The Bay Course although not as challenging as The Dunes, is still an excellent test of a golfer’s metal. Designed by Robert Trent Jones II, it’s a fun and enjoyable course to play, offering some truly marvellous views of the historic bay of Navarino.
