Golf
Costa Navarino's four championship golf courses are among the finest in Europe, each offering its own distinctive character and setting.
The two José María Olazábal-designed courses at Navarino Hills – the International Olympic Academy Golf Course and The Hills Course – sit high above the coastline and command breathtaking views of the Bay of Navarino, the Ionian Sea and the surrounding countryside. The International Olympic Academy Golf Course is the longer and more demanding of the two, while The Hills Course is set within a broad valley and offers more generous playing corridors and a different strategic challenge.
The Dunes Course, designed by Bernhard Langer in collaboration with European Golf Design, was the first signature course to open at Costa Navarino. Set amongst diverse natural scenery with spectacular sea and river views, this par-71 layout blends the character of a links course near the coast with inland stretches framed by olive groves and citrus orchards. Generous fairways, large undulating greens and strategically positioned bunkers make it both enjoyable and memorable for golfers of all abilities.
The Bay Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr, places greater emphasis on strategic play and positional golf. Offering panoramic sea and mountain views, the course winds through olive groves and dramatic canyons before descending to the historic Bay of Navarino, where two memorable holes sit alongside the shoreline. The varying elevations create some of the most spectacular vistas in Mediterranean golf.
