Ultimate Golf Destinations in The World





Golf is one of the most internationally connected sports in the world. The ability for golfers of all skill levels to travel and play many of the world's most incredible courses is undoubtedly the sport's greatest asset. They can play on courses that have served as the site of important championships or that were built in some of the most fascinating locations on earth.


We have put together a list of the Top golf destinations in the globe since golfers all over the world are keen to visit again this year. Based on each location's distinctive appeal to golfers worldwide, we came up with the list. The key consideration is a solid selection of publicly accessible courses, although each destination's history, off-course attractions, and landmarks are also important.


Best places to enjoy golf



● St. Andrews, Scotland


Even after hundreds of years, playing golf at its original location is still the ultimate vacation. A short journey throughout the Kingdom of Fife will take you to a number of attractive links, both old (Crail) and new (Kingsbarns), that date back to the 1400s, including six other Links Trust courses. There are charming sights, such as Old Tom Morris's grave and the old town's cobblestone alleyways lined with churches, golf shops, and cosy bars.


● Pebble Beach, California


More than only Pebble Beach Resorts and its three World Top 100 courses on the Pacific Ocean make up California's opulent Monterey Peninsula. The dog-friendly coastline popularised by TV coverage of the PGA Tour's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am flows into the picturesque city of Carmel-By-The-Sea. Another concentration of stores, galleries, and restaurants is Cannery Row, which is anchored by the Monterey Bay Aquarium.


Golfers can escape the marine layer and enjoy sunny skies at upscale golf destinations like Quail Lodge & Club and Carmel Valley Ranch by travelling inland. It's like winning the lottery to get a round at Cypress Point Club or Monterey Peninsula Country Club.



● Northern Ireland/Northwest Ireland


The two "Royals" are near the top of any list of the best 100 golf courses in the world. The Walker Cup hosts Royal County Down and the Open Championship hosts Royal Portrush are probably golf's greatest one-two punch, and both are just one hour from Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland.


Traveling westward into the Republic of Ireland shows numerous lesser-known but remarkably untamed Irish connections, such those at Ballyliffin, Enniscrone, and Carne. Gil Hanse and Tom Doak's redesigned linkages at Narin & Portnoo and Rosapenna, respectively, bring fresh curiosity.


● Northern Michigan


Few golf destinations offer the same variety as Northern Michigan, which, depending on how far you're ready to commute, has about two dozen courses deep. Boyne's three properties stand out among this group of multi-course resorts.


This region is known as the elevated tee shot capital of American golf due to its rolling hills and hardwood woodlands. Tom Doak and Mike DeVries frequented Dr. Alister MacKenzie's exclusive Crystal Downs, which had a significant impact on modern design, while Tom Watson played some of his earliest golf at the venerable, semi-private Belvedere in Charlevoix. Numerous inexpensive, off-the-beaten-path courses are just waiting to be found.


● New Zealand


There are equal amounts of spectacular golf courses on the North and South islands of New Zealand. The Kauri Cliffs and Cape Kidnappers aerial photographs of the North Island's coastal beauties are famous.


Their lodgings are equally comfortable. Coore & Crenshaw and Tom Doak are planning to open publicly accessible courses close by due to the reputation of Tom Doak's private Tara Iti, which is quite close to Kauri Cliffs. With Queenstown, Jack's Point, and The Hills, all of which have the remarkable mountains as their backdrop, the South Island strikes back.
