The 10th Tee at Phuket Country Club
Golf in Phuket started from a small beginning with the first course located at Surin Beach, as developement moved in part of the area has now made into a park. Playing golf in Phuket is a little bit more expensive then playing on a course near Bangkok or Pattaya, but it is well worth it! If you are staying in Patong you are spoilt for choice just 8 km away, with the
Phuket Country Club
with 27 holes,
Loch Palm
with 18 holes and the latest course to join,
Red Mountain
with 18 holes winding through the old tin mine. Up to the North of the island you have the
Laguna Phuket Golf Club
located in the Laguna Complex at Bang Tao Beach and not far up the road Blue Canyon Country Club offering their 2 courses the Canyon and the Lakes. On the North Eastern side of the island is where you will find the
Mission Hills Golf Resort and Spa
looking out onto Phang Nga Bay. The surprise gem is the Thai Muang Golf Club located on the Thai mainland around 30 minutes north of Phuket Airport, this course is well worth the drive. There are many golf package tour companies that you can book through, but it is worth checking the individual courses websites to find any specials, a good example was the junior special at the Loch Palm GC, 400 baht for a junior under 15 or the discount for booking online. It is also worth remembering to add the extra’s such as travelling to the course, buggy and club hire, caddy fee and tip so that you don’t get any surprises. Just beware that some of the hire clubs come with a wicked slice (just joking) a good golfer always blames his clubs, and also to take a few spare balls as there is plenty of water. If your game is a bit scratchy I would recommend looking at the Simple Golf Swing Website as it definitely helped me in playing more consistent golf and not having to blame my equipment.
