There are numerous beautiful golden sandy beaches to be enjoyed and plenty of cultural attractions too. However, one of the biggest attractions the area has to offer is the golf courses and there is a fantastic range to choose from.
The Sultan (PGA) Course
The world famous 18-hole PGA Sultan course is not only one of the best golf courses in Antalya and it's not hard to see why. The Sultan Course is very popular among keen golfers as you are put to the test on this wonderful par 71 course. Also, if you stay at certain hotels in the area you’ll be treated to a discount.
The course itself was designed by David Jones and it manages to blend in perfectly with its environment, creating a scenic backdrop. It’s located half an hour away from the Antalya airport and if you want to experience a little culture before you head to the Sultan course why not look at flights to Dalaman with Monarch?
Pasha, Antalya
Suitable for both low and high handicaps, the Pasha golf course in Antalya is challenging and beautiful. This par 72 course has numerous obstacles designed to test all abilities; from clever bunkers to difficult dog legs. Even the most experienced golfer will need to think twice before they take a shot on this course.
Winding through the Belek forest, this course has a stunning, dramatic backdrop which makes it a strong contender for those planning the perfect golfing trip.
Carya
The international Carya golf course has been designed by Thomson Perrett & Lobb. It’s unique in the fact that it’s the first ever heathland, classic style course built on the Mediterranean Turkish coast and the beautiful heather dominates the style of the course.
Naturally grown in an on-site nursery, the heather actually shapes the course and gives it a magnificent design. Other features include a state-of-the-art, brand new driving range and a dramatic sand ridge.
These are the top three golf courses you should consider when travelling to Antalya. Visitors travel from all over the world to hit a few balls on these greens. There are also a number of golf tournaments and events throughout the year, so make sure you check availability before booking a holiday.
