El Kantaoui Golf Course – Tunisia’s classic on the Mediterranean If you are looking for a golf course in North Africa that combines sporting challenges, well-maintained fairways and a genuine holiday feeling, then the El Kantaoui Golf Course in Sousse, Tunisia, is definitely a top choice. The course is one of the best known and most popular golf courses in the country – not least because it has hosted international tournaments and is located directly on a picturesque stretch of the Mediterranean coast. Two 18-hole courses with character: Panorama & Sea Course The facility consists of two very different but equally attractive 18-hole golf courses: the Sea Course and the Panorama Course. Sea Course – golf with a sea view The Sea Course lives up to its name: here you play on gently undulating terrain with a fantastic view of the Mediterranean Sea. The fairways are open, the sea breeze is almost always blowing – and that makes the round strategically challenging. Some holes run directly along the coast, others through palm groves. Visually, this course is a real highlight. Signature hole? Definitely the 11th – a par 3 built directly on a cliff, with the sea behind you and a nasty bunker in front on the left. Every shot counts double here. Panorama Course – technique and precision required The Panorama Course runs more inland, is slightly hillier and more densely vegetated. Precision is more important than length here – lots of doglegs, small greens and tricky bunkers mean you have to play each hole with your head. For me, this is a course that only really becomes fun on the second or third time around, because then you know the pitfalls and can position yourself better. Training conditions & infrastructure The training facilities at the course are solid. A large driving range with grass tees, pitching and chipping greens and several practice bunkers are available. Perfect for getting a feel for the course before your round or honing your technique. The clubhouse is typically Tunisian – white, bright and overlooking the course. There is a cosy terrace, a good restaurant, a bar and a well-stocked pro shop. Climatic conditions – year-round golf in Tunisia A big plus point: playable all year round. Winters are mild, summers are warm, but thanks to the sea breeze, they are bearable. Spring and autumn are perfect for a golf trip in terms of weather – pleasant temperatures, little wind and perfect course conditions. Location & surroundings El Kantaoui Golf is located just a few kilometres north of the old town of Sousse and is part of the Port El Kantaoui holiday complex – with a marina, hotels, restaurants and a long sandy beach right on the doorstep. If you want to combine a golf holiday with a beach holiday, this is the place for you. Conclusion from a player’s perspective El Kantaoui Golf is not the most modern course in North Africa, but it is one of the most charming. Two very different 18-hole courses, a relaxed atmosphere, fair green fees and great value for money make it a must-visit for any golf holidaymaker in Tunisia. And yes – handicap hunters and tournament players will also get their money’s worth here.
