The Mayan Riviera boasts having the best courses in Mexico with the first ever PGA tournament being played at the El Camaleon Mayakoba in 2007.
No matter where you stay on the Mayan Riviera you are no further than an hour away from a course. Some hotels have driving ranges.
Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned veteran the Mayan Riviera offers tree lined and shaded fairways,
challenging greens, great views of the ocean, Mayan ruins and an array of exotic birds and
animals.
It is cooler to golf later in the day - but almost impossible to get 18 holes in before dark.

GOLF COURSES IN COZUMEL

Cozumel Country Club is this island's first golf course and the Riviera Maya's newest championship test of golf, and it took five years to be sculpted in the limestone and the coral and saltwater marshes at the northwest shores of Cozumel island.
This wonderful golf course carved from the Mayan jungle is environmentally friendly; it was carefully crafted from the surrounding mangrove, marshlands and tropical rainforest to preserve its environmental integrity and it possesses very thick vegetation around it, which makes it easier to collect the balls.
Created to provide a first-class golf test for players of any skill levels, Cozumel Country Club offers a challenging experience to the serious golfer and allows an enjoyable surrounding for the not so serious one. It provides, in addition, a well-equipped golf store, a snack bar, as well as two tiered tees with plenty of room for practice or just warm up, a putting green and chipping green with a practice bunker.
