Porto Carras Resort
Porto Carras
Porto Carras Resort is a strong choice for UK golfers looking for a Greece golf holiday with sunshine, sea views and everything in one place. Set on the western coast of Sithonia in Halkidiki, the resort sits on a private peninsula where the Aegean Sea, pine forests and vineyards create a very different feel from the busier Mediterranean golf destinations.
The main attraction is Porto Carras Golf Club, an 18-hole, par-72 course and the largest golf course in Northern Greece. Established in 1974 and later redesigned, the course stretches across 45 hectares of paspalum grass, with three scenic lakes, olive trees, stone pines, bunkers and views towards Mount Itamos, the Aegean Sea and the resort’s Domaine vineyards.
This is best suited to golfers who want relaxed resort golf rather than a packed multi-course itinerary. The course is enjoyable and scenic, with enough water and shaping to keep the round interesting, but the wider resort experience is a big part of the appeal too. Guests can enjoy beach time, spa facilities, a marina, restaurants, wine tasting and the nearby town of Neos Marmaras, making it a good option for couples or groups where not everyone wants golf every day.
For UK travellers, Porto Carras works well as a sunshine golf escape into Northern Greece, with Thessaloniki Airport around 112km away. It is ideal for those who want golf, beach, scenery and proper downtime in one Greek resort setting.
