Everyone needs something to cut through their stress. We all experience stress in modern life, and if we can find ways to deal with that stress, we can cope. Usually, we do it through hobbies, small little activities that make up a big part of us, and things that distract us from life – just a little bit. Sometimes, we get away from home for a short time on vacation for a much-needed rest. Why not combine the two?
A golfing getaway is a reality. Golf is a sport of class and of relaxation, making it the perfect bedfellow for a vacation; so why not centre your next getaway around golfing? Golfing is the perfect activity to perform in the sun, so go find the sun, the sea and the sand banks with these golfing getaways.
Nowhere says ‘sun’ like the Caribbean and the Dominican Republic. This slice of Caribbean life contains a truly epic amount of golf – you might need to book a month here to sample all of the courses! Punta Cana is a highlight, but you might look to enjoy the Punta Espada course designed by one Jack Nicklaus, which is set beside the beautiful sea; alongside the tropic delights of The Dominican Republic.
California is known as the land of luxury to many, and it plays host to many golf courses and links on the Golden Coast. With quick links to other parts of the United States, you can get in and out of the state rapidly, but why would you? California rewards patience, and while you could whizz around the courses of the state, a stay at a resort like Mayacama is a unique experience. A private golf course, the sun, a golfing community – golfing resorts give you a chance to improve your handicap while making new memories, and new friends. Perfect!
If you want your golf steeped in history, head to Fife in Scotland. St. Andrews Links are known as the home of golf, and for a good reason. St. Andrews in Fife has played home to golfers from around the world for over six hundred years. While the sun isn’t a promised thing in Scotland, history is – and that’s a valuable sacrifice to make in order to experience this course. St. Andrews Links also host the Old Course, which is the oldest golf course in the world. Sure, it won’t be hot, but it offers a calmness amongst history that cannot be matched. Don’t miss this slice of golf history.
Spain and Portugal also have plenty of golf to offer. Desert Springs, La Envia, Valle del Este are the choices in Spain, while Portugal hosts the Salgados Golf Club, set between the valleys and oceans of this European destination. Golf courses are plentiful
