Greece

We are thrilled to introduce Greece as a golfing destination. Initially designed by Donald Harradine and opened in 1966, Glyfada is the oldest club in the country, and also the home of the Hellenic Golf Federation and the PGA of Greece. Later, the course was remodeled by Robert Trent Jones Jr.

Situated within the Peloponnese region, Costa Navarino is the newest golf destination and offers a world-class golf experience. It features four 18-hole signature courses in idyllic settings next to a range of luxury resorts, private residences, beach clubs, wellness centers, tennis clubs and golf training facilities. 

 Designed by US Masters Champion Bernhard Langer in association with European Golf Design, the Dunes Course is ranked the best course in the country, followed by the International Olympic Academy, designed by José María Olazábal in 2022. The Bay Course opened in 2011 and is Robert Trent Jones Jr. signature course at Navarino while the Hills course is another JM Olazábal course.

We simply can’t wait to design the perfect golf trip in Greece for you and chat about the many highlights and hidden gems you can explore on your vacation.
