Golf in Turkey

The rising star of the golf world, Turkey has a golfing history that dates back to the early 20th century. A nation that, today, is very tolerant to western lifestyles, the Tourism Ministry appointed Belek as the area to develop for visiting golfers and invested heavily in building luxurious courses. The country’s wonderful climate, thanks to its location between the Mediterranean and Black Sea, plus historic towns and sandy beaches, make it a golfer’s paradise.

 

Favourite destinations for a golf getaway

 

Belek offers a plethora of unique spots for a golf getaway, among them are the luxury golf clubs of Carya, Titanic, and Sirene. Other popular locations to swing at include the tourist haven of Antalya, with stunning sea views and iconic courses including Cornelia and Gloria. Or, why not visit the historic city of Istanbul? This corner of Turkey offers a mix of rich cultural and golf experiences, making it great for those who want to combine the two.
