Golfing on your Trip to Jamaica
One of the most popular activities
for vacations these days is golf, and just because you're
going to Jamaica doesn't mean that you have to trade your
clubs in for a diving suit. There are quite a number of good
quality golf courses available for you to use during your
holiday through the island. Here are just a few of them:
The most spectacular new golf
course in Jamaica has to be the White Witch Golf Course situated
in Montego Bay as part of the Ritz Carlton Rose Hall Resort.
Here you'll find top quality service with everything from
caddies to golf equipment – and someone (the white witch
herself) to blame for all the lost balls and over pars! This
course isn't for the beginner however, it's more rugged than
most, but if you’re looking for a challenge a round
or two here will certainly make your vacation memorable.
Not too far from the White
Witch Golf Course is the Three Palms Ocean Course which is
part of the Wyndham Rose Hall resort. There are a few holes
on this course that will make chipping your ball into a bunker
or pond look like child’s play as they are so close
to the ocean! On the other hand, it's a small price to pay
for a course that not only has breathtaking ocean views, but
also ruins and a waterfall as part of its natural backdrop!
The Ocho Rios Sandals Golf & Country club has a nice course for those who are staying in that part of the island. Again, the round of golf is topped off with some stunning ocean views to take your mind of the missed shots!
Although Jamaica isn't known
for its championship level courses, the courses it does have
cater for different levels of play from challenging down to
beginner – ideal for families. If you aren't staying
at a hotel that has the kind of golfing amenities you’re
looking for, ask if the hotel can organize it so that you
can have permission to play at one that does – sometimes
the hotels have “arrangements” with one another
that allow this kind of interaction between establishments.
