Why Golf in South Africa??
South Africa is famous for its breathtaking landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and diverse wildlife. But beyond its famous safaris and vibrant cities, South Africa has also become a top destination…
The North West province of South Africa is a noteworthy destination for golf enthusiasts. This region, while perhaps not as famous as the Western Cape or Gauteng for golf, offers its unique charm and high-quality golfing experiences.
The jewel in the crown of North West golf courses is undoubtedly the Gary Player Country Club at Sun City, a world-renowned course designed by the golfing legend himself. This course is known for hosting the annual Nedbank Golf Challenge, one of the highlights of the South African golf calendar, attracting top international players. The layout is challenging yet fair, set against the backdrop of the beautiful Pilanesberg mountains.
Additionally, the Lost City Golf Course in Sun City provides a different but equally enjoyable golfing experience with its unique design elements, including a crocodile-filled water hazard.
Beyond golf, the North West Province offers luxury resorts, game reserves for wildlife viewing, and the region’s rich cultural history, making it an appealing destination for golfers and their families looking for a comprehensive holiday in South Africa.
