Located 45 minutes south of Dubai, Abu Dhabi has a host of world-class golf courses either in the desert or carved out of the coastline overlooking the Persian Gulf.

It really has become a sensational sports venue, with the Yas Links golf course, the F1 Yas Marina Circuit – home to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – and Ferrari World, site of the world’s fastest rollercoaster, the Formula Rossa, which goes from 0-240kmh in just five seconds. Saadiyat Island is also developing as a high-end resort destination with brands such as St Regis, Park Hyatt and Rixos, so you’re bound to find something to keep you occupied when not teeing it up at the European Tour destination of Abu Dhabi Golf Club, a Golf Digest world top-25 course, at Yas Links, or at the Gary Player-designed Saadiyat Beach.

South Africa PECTACULAR backdrops, an ideal climate and simply breathtaking golf – South Africa has it all and the country really should be on your radar when it comes to planning your next holiday away on the fairways. Fancourt is the obvious destination; home to three Gary Player-designed courses, the venue on the Garden Route, just outside of George, is South Africa’s premier lifestyle estate. The Links course is part of the world’s top 100 courses and, complete with 133 luxury rooms and suites, it’s a must if you’re visiting the country. Combine your golf trip with sampling the local wines; Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl, to name just a few, are known for their golf courses and wine farms. Or, for the nature-lover, head to Sun City – home of the Nedbank Golf Challenge on the European Tour, and another Gary Player-designed course – to blend together a golf and safari holiday. If you want to see this vibrant country in style, consider a railway journey to truly experience all parts of South Africa. Rovos Rail offers seven to 10-day itineraries featuring all-inclusive luxury, golf, safari and sightseeing through a variety of routes.

Travel info Take a direct, 11-hour flight to Johannesburg or Cape Town with British Airways. Alternatively, break your journey up by flying from the majority of UK airports. When you arrive, there are a variety of options for internal flights. Climate South Africa’s climate changes from Mediterranean in the South West (Cape Town) to temperate in the interior plateau (Johannesburg) and subtropical in the North East (Kruger National Park).

LORIDA is a regular yearly stop on the PGA Tour, and it’s very easy
to see why. TPC Sawgrass, namely the Stadium Course, is the host of THE PLAYERS Championship and is one of the most iconic golf courses in the world, thanks in large part to the 17th hole – a short par 3 over a lake to an island green, which sees plenty of drama every year at the unofficial fifth major of the year. Away from Sawgrass, you can’t really go wrong wherever you venture to in the Sunshine State. The Blue Monster at Trump National Doral was the regular host of a World Golf Championship, while the Innisbrook Resort is one of the most prestigious venues in Florida and plays host to the Valspar Championship every year on the PGA Tour. Or, for a piece of history, head to Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill – the site of the Arnold Palmer Invitational on the PGA Tour where Tiger Woods has claimed an astounding eight titles. With an enormous range of hotels, nightlife and offcourse attractions to choose from, whatever you opt for, you will not be disappointed and you will leave sun-soaked Florida with unforgettable memories.
Travel info Orlando International Airport is served daily by direct flights from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Glasgow. It will take a two-hour drive to reach north-east Florida.

Our top tip If Orlando is on your wish-list then talk to the Golfbreaks Concierge Team about building a tour specific to you. There are so many good courses, from PGA tour venues to hidden gems and we have a variety of accommodation options. Did you know The Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass was built to host The Players Championship. Pete Dye created a course that favoured no style of play.

United States COTTSDALE, just east of Phoenix in Arizona, is renowned for its incredible golf courses that are carved out of the desert, often resulting in spectacular dramatic landscapes.

Travel info British Airways, American Airlines, Iberia and Finnair operate flights to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport from London Heathrow – expect around an 11-hour flight. On arrival, it will take a 20-minute drive to get to Scottsdale.

The summer offers some great prices but it gets very hot, often over 40 degrees. Our top tip The Waste Management Phoenix Open takes place annually at TPC Scottsdale at the end of January. It’s an awesome event to attend but you have to book early as it brings thousands of golf fans to the area.
