Golf holidays in Cyprus – a paradise for golfers in the Mediterranean Cyprus as a golf destination – sun, sea and perfect fairways If you are a golfer looking for a sun-drenched destination with excellent golf courses, Mediterranean flair and a relaxed lifestyle, Cyprus should be at the top of your list. The third-largest island in the Mediterranean has become a real insider tip for golf holidays in recent years. Especially around Paphos in the south-west of the island, there are first-class golf courses, high-quality resorts and a relaxed atmosphere that will delight both ambitious players and leisure golfers alike. Climate and travel season – Year-round golfing pleasure Thanks to the mild Mediterranean climate, golfing in Cyprus is possible almost all year round. Even in the winter months, temperatures often exceed 15 degrees, while in spring and autumn you can enjoy ideal conditions with temperatures around 20–25 degrees. Summers can be hot, but with early tee times and light breezes from the sea, it is still pleasant to play. Top golf courses in Cyprus – variety with a view Cyprus offers four 18-hole golf courses, all located near Paphos and within a 30-minute drive. Each course has its own character, but all impress with well-maintained fairways, first-class design and great views. Aphrodite Hills Golf Club (par 71) One of the most famous courses on the island – spectacularly located above the sea with breathtaking views over the coast. The signature hole is the 7th, with a tee shot over a deep ravine – a real highlight. The adjoining resort offers everything a golfer’s heart desires. Secret Valley Golf Club (par 71) Nestled in a picturesque rocky landscape, this course offers exciting challenges in a varied layout. Narrow fairways and clever bunker placements demand strategy and precision. Elea Estate Golf Club (par 71) A masterpiece by Sir Nick Faldo. Modern design meets classic golf layout. The course is technically demanding and offers a great mix of playability and sophistication – ideal for medium to good handicappers. Minthis Golf Club (Par 72) Located at an altitude of around 550 metres, Minthis offers a fantastic view over the hills of Cyprus. The climate here is a little cooler – perfect for a relaxed round. Particularly charming: the restored 12th-century monastery in the centre of the resort. Resorts & accommodation – stylish living with short distances to the tee Most golf courses are directly connected to high-quality resorts or villa complexes. Whether you prefer to stay in a 5-star hotel with a spa and sea view or a private villa with its own pool – the choice is vast. There are excellent options with golf and spa combinations, especially around Aphrodite Hills and Minthis Hills.
