LOCAL GOLF COURSES

The Fours Seasons in Side is perfectly situated for the many Championship courses in the Antalya area.

Turkey is a modern golf and vacation paradise and one that is quickly developing as an alternative to golf vacations in Western Europe, with several world-class facilities and many more under way. It would be difficult to find an undiscovered golf destination of Turkey's caliber anywhere in the world. All professional courses have been developed by international teams of golf architects, consultants and PGA Professionals. Course maintenance is also top notch.

The golf season in Antalya begins in October when most European golf regions are winding down for the off season. Antalya is one of the few places where golf can be played right through the winter in short sleeves.

Here are just a few of the local courses:-
