Golf in colourful Tunisia
Golf in Tunisia is seeing a growth in popularity among UK golfers as the country provides everything you will be looking for; the perfect weather, fantastic golf courses and luxury hotels.
Hammamet in the northeast of Tunisia has brilliant golf courses such as the Championship Course at Yasmine Golf Club; a great parkland layout that is built for all golfers with big greens and short rough. The Foret Course at Golf Citrus is one of our favourites in Tunisia, the strategically placed bunkers add a layer of complexity however, the wide fairways and expansive greens make for a fun round of golf.
Port El Kantaoui, south of Hammamet, is another of Tunisia’s great golfing locations. The Sea Course at El Kantaoui Golf Club features elements of a links layout and as the name suggests, has holes that run parallel with the sea. The Flamingo Golf Course requires accuracy off the tee if you want to avoid the thick rough and well-placed bunkers however, the stunning views will be worth any struggles on the course.
Discover the highlights of a Tunisia golf holiday
Although Tunisia isn’t often the first thought when booking up a golf holiday, it should most definitely be a contender.
The North African country boasts some truly outstanding courses which can easily be ranked amongst the best in the whole of Africa.

What makes the golf in Tunisia truly special is the great value for money golfers can expect to pick up here. Tunisia is still building its profile in the wider golf community and has to compete with more well-known destinations like Spain, Portugal, Morocco and of course Turkey.
