Golf in the province of Girona

Catalunya's golfing tradition dates back a relatively short time (the first course was opened here in 1914) but the sport´s popularity has been growing rapidly in recent years. The mild climate here allows golfers to practice their sport year-round. Forty-five courses are now in operation in Catalunya, and more are under construction. Most courses are located along the Mediterranean coastline, although eight courses lie in the foothills of the lofty Pyrenees. Thirteen of Catalunya's golf courses are situated along our recommended routes and near some of our rental properties, so we offer the following brief descriptions of each course, listed in no particular order of preference. Green fees range from about 10,000 ptas for 18 holes on weekends in high-season, to under 4,500 ptas for seniors on weekends in low-season.

We don´t offer golf package holidays as such (there are other websites for that, but they take a hefty fee and you can enjoy great savings booking on your own, which is very easy now with internet. We organize complete self-catering or B&B accommodation near or right on the golf courses.
