What You Can Expect On Your Jamaica Golf Vacation
By Dottson Bando
With the wide array of spectacular scenery and gorgeous weather, Jamaica golf is the perfect relaxation activity for your vacation. There are only about twelve courses to choose from but you'll be kept entertained by the wide variety. The fact is, each course has distinctive qualities... and each course has its own unique character which will provide you with many memorable experiences.
Despite there being just twelve courses on the island of Jamaica, there is a wide range of experience level. It doesn't matter what level you are... beginner or experienced... you'll find a course to suit you. This way you can enjoy the links with a challenge to your level of expertise.
If you are an experienced golfer, one of the top Jamaica golf courses is The Tryall Club. Tryall is located just an hour west of Montego Bay, which is the perfect location for tourists looking for a challenge. This resort is a collection of upscale homes for North Americans and Europeans, giving it an up-scale feel. A visit to the course can be arranged through hotel concierges although it is a private resort area.
If you are a beginner and are looking to have a good time, the hub of Negril's all-inclusive resorts is one of the most popular courses. Being a beginner, you can fit right in at Negril Hills Golf Club as most of the golfers are first timers or golfers that go no more than a couple of times a year. The location gives you a rare and novel experience as you travel up and down the elevated trees to the valley fairways.
Head out to Sandals Golf and Country Club if you're looking for a little less upscale but an equally challenging course as The Tryall Club. You will find some of the best golf in Jamaica here with a plethora of quality and experienced golfers. Although it was in rough shape just a few years ago, Sandals was recently purchased and has been completely revamped.(2006)
If you want to get a taste of history while visiting Jamaica, Manchester Country Club is the Caribbean's oldest golf course. Found in the city of Mandeville on Jamaica's south coast, it is truly an experience you cannot miss out on. In addition, it is over 2,000 feet above sea level... and is set in rolling hills and provides gorgeous scenery.
Jamaica golf is a popular activity among tourists and locals. There is something for everyone... although there are only twelve courses. With gorgeous scenery, courses of all degrees of difficulty, and a chance to relax and enjoy your time under the sun, Jamaica golf is an activity you do not want to miss out on while vacationing.

The Caribbean is a popular vacation choice and Jamaica is one of the easier locations to get to in the Caribbean. Jamaica is about two and a half hours away from Miami and has a number of popular airlines flying in from North America. A much sought-after cruise destination, Jamaica also has well known ocean liners such as the Carnival, Celebrity, Princess and Royal Caribbean carrying starry-eyed passengers to and from.
Jamaica has innumerable world-class golf courses, including the Caribbean's oldest golf course. Most of the golf courses are situated in and around resorts, making them convenient to locate. Jamaican golf courses vary in difficulty and given the island's multitude of golf courses, finding one to suit every level of player skill and ability should be an easy task.
Some of Jamaica's best courses such as Caymanas in Kingston, the Half Moon Golf Club, Ironshore, the Tryall Golf Club and the Wyndham Rose Hall Resort in the Montego Bay area are all 18-hole courses designed by some of the best architects in the world. For a more leisurely 9-hole course the Discovery Bay or the Mandeville golf courses are popular choices.
You may have to be 25 to drive a car in Jamaica but driving ranges and practice putting areas in the golf resorts are all for catching you young and watching you grow. Most of the golf resorts offer family packages where kids get to play free and even have training sessions to improve their game.
Jamaica Golf Resorts, like most of their counterparts in other places offer superb golfing facilities and a host of other activities to keep the whole family entertained. So you can go ahead and spend guilt-free days at the links knowing for sure that your family is happy, enjoying the wide-range of attractions this island has to offer.
