AAbout Sri Lanka Golf

 

 

You may be surprised to hear of Golf in Sri Lanka. Yes, of course, we have three Golf courses, giving you the best preference of playing the game under three diverse climatic conditions and altitudes, eventually making you to feel as if you are enjoying the game in three different parts of the world. While you are at play, in Colombo, perspiration will cool your skin owing to the state of warmness of a high summer that generally prevails. The Golf course in Kandy invites you to a condition of mild autumn whilst the one in Nuwara Eliya provides you with a coolness of a gentle winter season. These are the finest of the 18 hole Golf courses with few other mini Golf courses spread over the Island

Apart from the locations of the game, you will be curious to know about SriLankan Golfing. Having been a British colony for 153 years, We assert a longstanding history over this game dating back to 1895, in which year, the "Alfred Model Farm " named after the son of Queen Victoria, was offered to the Golf Club by then Colonial Secretary, an ardent golfer himself, under the patronage of then Governor of Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Sir Joseph West Ridgeway, which was first named after him. Consequently, in 1996, the club was named as “The Royal Colombo Golf Club”.

Besides the opportunity you have to play Golf under assorted places and conditions, we also offer you the additional prospects of seeing some of the islands renowned Cultural and Heritage sites , so you could enjoy the wholeness of your tour.
