Missing The Links? Top 5 Golf Courses To Visit On Your Superyacht Charter

1. Royal St. Kitts Golf Club - Christophe Harbour, St. Kitts, Caribbean

Christophe Harbour in St. Kitts is unsurprisingly being labelled as one of the hottest new superyacht destinations in the Caribbean. Located within the yachting hub of the Eastern Caribbean, the marina, which is set in one of the world’s most beautiful natural harbours, offers berths for superyachts up to 91m (300ft).

The 300-berth marina village sits at the heart of an ultra-luxury resort with a range of facilities that includes an elegant beach club, gourmet restaurants and access to the island’s untouched natural beauty and inimitable Caribbean culture.

The spectacular cliff-top golf course of Royal St Kitts is one of the most scenic and well maintained golf courses in the Caribbean. The full 18-hole lush course allows golfers to play two full holes by the Caribbean Sea and three complete holes by the Atlantic Ocean.

2. Son Gual - Mallorca, Spain

A mere 30-minute drive from the port of Palma de Mallorca. You will relish the challenge of negotiating the 66 bunkers, an outstanding collection of par-3s and one of best closing holes in Europe – a 544-yard par-5 with two stretches of water and yet more bunkers.

Son Gual also features several impressive lakes, 800 olive trees and vineyards in many areas around the course – even the teeing areas are huge. The stunning Thomas Himmel-designed Son Gual course is less than 20 minutes from Palma airport and has already staged a European Tour event.

3. Golf de Terre Blanche - South of France

An average of 300 days of sunshine per year is just one of many reasons to visit the renowned Terre Blanche greens. Hidden in a quiet corner of the Côte d’Azur, the Four Seasons Group opened the course in 2000. The immaculately maintained Le Chateau course, constructed on a previously hilly landscape, is now a golfer’s heaven, and one that everyone is talking about.

The two 18-hole championship golf courses were designed by Dave Thomas and inspired by the natural surroundings, combining performance and pleasure of the game in a stunning environment.

4. Cabo del Sol – Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Cabo del Sol has been ranked among the top 100 courses in the world by Golf Magazine. This ocean course is a true golfer’s paradise, with scenic greens overlooking the shimmering Sea of Cortez. A 40,000 sq. ft. hacienda-style clubhouse offers a refined atmosphere and the Golf Shop stocks a great selection of accessories, equipment and golf fashion.

The Desert Course is comprised of 140 acres of gently rolling desert terrain overlooking the ocean. Rated number #6 by Golf Digest, this is a must see!

5. Lykia Links Golf Course - Belek, Turkey

The Lykia Links golf course was the first course of its kind in the Southern Mediterranean, which means that it is a huge draw for links fans that are looking for a course in a warmer climate. Designed by Perry Dye the son of legendary Pete Dye, the course sits a bit away from the “Belek Golf Strip”, one of Europe’s most vibrant golfing hot spots. As one of only 300 links courses worldwide, this course must definitely be on your list and is a welcome change to the other Belek courses.
