Cullinan Links Golf Club
Belek
Cullinan Links Golf Club is one of Belek’s most distinctive golf venues, offering 36 holes in a remarkable position between the Mediterranean Sea, the Beşgöz River and the Taurus Mountains. Spread across approximately 110 hectares, the club combines coastal scenery, pine-lined fairways, elevated tees and extensive water features to create a varied golfing experience in the heart of Turkey’s leading golf destination.
The club features two 18-hole layouts, the Aspendos Course and the Olympos Course, designed by European Golf Design. Both courses reward sensible positioning and accurate approach play, with water, carefully placed bunkers and large greens shaping the challenge. There are ten lakes and more than 100 bunkers across the complex, so golfers who plan their way around are likely to fare better than those who rely on power alone.
Aspendos provides a varied championship-style test, moving between wider playing areas and more strategically demanding holes where water and sand influence the best route to the green. Its back nine is floodlit, giving golfers the unusual opportunity to continue playing after sunset. Olympos offers its own mixture of par threes, reachable par fives and risk-and-reward holes, with the coastal breeze adding another element to club selection and ball control.
Cullinan Links also has extensive practice facilities, including putting greens, chipping areas and professional coaching for golfers of different abilities. The contemporary clubhouse provides a comfortable place to enjoy food and drinks after the round while taking in views across the course.
Away from golf, visitors can relax on Belek’s sandy Mediterranean beaches, enjoy the spas and restaurants at the surrounding resorts or explore Antalya’s historic centre. The remarkably preserved Roman theatre at Aspendos is another excellent addition to a golf holiday, offering an easy cultural trip between rounds.

About The Area
Sarigerme is an exciting new choice for a golf holiday in Turkey, combining a long sandy beach, luxury all-inclusive resorts and remarkably easy access from the UK. This peaceful coastal village sits approximately 11 kilometres from Dalaman International Airport, allowing golfers to reach their hotel in around 15–20 minutes after landing.
The destination’s golfing appeal centres on The Dalaman Golf Club, which is scheduled to open on 30 August 2026. The new 18-hole, par-72 championship course will be the first golf venue in the region, creating an alternative to Turkey’s established golf resorts around Belek. Designed by Andrew Craven of International Design Group, the 6,750-yard layout moves through three distinctive environments: dunes, wetlands and mountain scenery.
Golfers can expect strategically positioned bunkers, water hazards and changing landscapes, along with a driving range, putting and chipping greens, rental equipment, golf buggies and an academy for different ability levels. A complimentary shuttle will connect the course with Hilton Dalaman Sarigerme Resort & Golf, making it especially convenient for guests staying at the resort.
Away from the course, Sarigerme is known for its broad beach, clear water and attractive natural surroundings. Watersports are widely available, while the compact village centre offers restaurants, cafés and small shops without the noise and crowds of a large resort town.
The wider Dalaman region also provides plenty to explore between rounds. Golfers can visit the harbour town of Göcek, take a boat trip around its sheltered bays or travel to Dalyan for the ancient ruins of Kaunos, riverside restaurants and nearby İztuzu Beach.
With a championship course, short airport transfer and high-quality beachfront accommodation, Sarigerme is set to become one of Turkey’s most interesting emerging golf destinations. It should particularly suit couples, groups and mixed golfing families who want to combine their rounds with an all-inclusive Mediterranean holiday.
