When golfers think of the Riviera Maya, they immediately picture turquoise seas, white sandy beaches, palm trees – and some of the most exciting golf courses in Latin America. In recent years, Mexico’s Caribbean coast has developed into a top golf destination that has much more to offer than just sun and sand. Golfing on the Riviera Maya – a tropical dream setting The courses on the Riviera Maya are designed in such a way that practically every shot gives you the feeling of playing in the middle of the jungle or right by the sea. The architects – including well-known names such as Greg Norman, Robert Trent Jones II and Jack Nicklaus – have perfectly integrated the natural environment: dense mangroves, cenotes (underground freshwater caves), Caribbean breezes and spectacular views of the sea. The best golf courses on the Riviera Maya El Camaleón Mayakoba Golf Club – probably the best-known course, as it is a stop on the PGA Tour. A mix of jungle, mangroves and coastline that challenges every golfer. Iberostar Playa Paraíso Golf Club – a course designed by P.B. Dye and known for its challenging layout. The bunkers and water hazards are particularly memorable. Gran Coyote Golf Riviera Maya – modern, sporty, windy, with fast greens and many strategic challenges. Hard Rock Golf Club Riviera Maya – perfect if you want to combine golf with a rock “n” roll lifestyle. Puerto Aventuras & Riviera Cancun Golf Club – for those who love variety, with generous fairways and Caribbean flair. Golf holidays in Riviera Maya – more than just golf What makes the region so special is that you can perfectly combine your golf holiday with culture and relaxation. After your round, you can visit the famous Mayan ruins of Tulum or Chichén Itzá, go snorkelling or diving in the world’s second-largest coral reef, or simply enjoy a sundowner on the beach. Added to this is the excellent hotel industry – from all-inclusive resorts right on the course to boutique hotels in laid-back Playa del Carmen. Climate and travel season The Riviera Maya is suitable for golf all year round, with the main season between November and April, when the climate is pleasantly warm and less humid. In the summer months, it becomes more tropical, but the courses are less busy. Conclusion – Golfing in the Riviera Maya For golfers who want to combine sun, sea and outstanding golf courses, the Riviera Maya is one of the most exciting destinations in the world. Here, Caribbean holiday vibes meet sophisticated golf design, and you literally play in paradise. 👉 A golf trip to the Riviera Maya means: a round of golf in the jungle or by the sea in the morning, an afternoon at the spa or an excursion into Mayan culture – and dinner under palm trees in the evening.

more details
Meeting place: One of P.B. Dye's finest creations, and also one of the most challenging, the Iberostar Playa Paraiso Golf Club, just 30 minutes from the Cancun International Airport, boasts year-round course conditions of the highest quality. Host to prestigious international events such as the World Amateur Team Championships, the PGA TOUR Latinoamerica and the PGA TOUR Monday Qualifier, it's no wonder the most demanding golfers choose the Iberostar Playa Paraiso Golf Club as their favorite club in Mexico. With multiple tee positions, golfers of all skill levels and abilities can enjoy a world-class golf course.
Measuring 6,525 yards from the black tees, this Par 72 is no stroll through the Mayan jungle. Its difficulty lies in its technical aspect, with undulating greens, fast and well guarded by deep bunkers where precision will be essential. Cenotes and tropical trees make the fairways narrow and the rough can be lethal for your card. Although it is located very close to the sea, the wind does not influence the game and its 22 degrees annual average makes it playable all year round.
