Golf Holidays in Turkey: The Complete Guide to Belek & Antalya

Few places let you tee off among pine and eucalyptus in the morning, and swim in the warm Mediterranean by the afternoon. Belek, a resort town on Türkiye’s Antalya coast, does exactly that — and it has quietly become one of Europe’s premier golf destinations. With a cluster of championship courses, luxury five-star resorts within a short drive of one another, and a season that stretches long after northern Europe has turned cold, Turkey has earned its place on every serious golfer’s list. This is our complete guide to planning a golf holiday in Turkey.

Almost all of Türkiye’s international golf takes place in and around Belek, roughly 30–40 minutes east of Antalya Airport. What makes it special is density and quality: a large collection of world-class courses sit close together, most attached to or moments from luxury resorts. That means you can play a different championship layout each day without long transfers, and be back at your hotel spa or by the sea within minutes. The courses are set among mature Mediterranean pine forest, with generous fairways, well-kept greens and sea breezes — beautiful to look at and a genuine test to play.

One of Belek’s biggest advantages is its long golf season. The prime months are spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November), when temperatures are comfortable for a full round and the courses are in superb condition. Winter golf is very much possible too — Belek stays mild while much of Europe is frozen, which is why it fills with golfers escaping the cold from November through February. High summer (July–August) is hot, so early-morning and late-afternoon tee times are the way to enjoy it. Whenever you come, you can expect plenty of sunshine.

Belek is known for its five-star golf resorts, many with their own on-site courses, extensive spas, private beaches and a choice of restaurants. Staying at a golf resort makes everything simple: your rounds, tee times, practice facilities and transfers are coordinated in one place. A typical all-inclusive golf package we arrange includes several nights’ resort accommodation, a set number of rounds on championship courses, buggy or trolley hire, welcome and gala dinners, and all airport and golf transfers — so you simply arrive and play. Non-golfing partners are well looked after too, with spas, beaches and excursions on hand.

Belek suits almost every kind of golf trip:

• Golf societies and clubs — group-friendly courses and resorts make it easy to organise multi-day, multi-course itineraries with competitions and prize-giving dinners.
• Corporate and incentive golf trips — a superb backdrop for company golf days, client hospitality and MICE programmes, combining play with meetings and celebration dinners.
• Couples and mixed groups — golfers and non-golfers holiday happily together thanks to the resorts’ spas, beaches and excursions.
• Winter-sun golfers — a warm, reliable escape when courses back home are closed.

Belek has a strong tradition of hosting tournaments and pro-am events, drawing golfers from across the world. Turquaz Tour is proud to be part of this scene — including our Elite International Pro-Am Golf Tournament 2027, which pairs championship golf with a full hospitality programme of welcome cocktails, a gala dinner and coastal experiences. Whether you want to compete, entertain clients, or simply play alongside like-minded golfers, an event-based trip is a memorable way to experience Turkish golf.

A few things worth knowing before you book:

• Fly into Antalya (AYT) — it is the closest airport and well connected to Belek.
• Book tee times ahead, especially in spring and autumn, as the best courses are busy in peak season.
• Bring your handicap certificate if you have one; some courses request it.
• You can hire quality clubs locally if you would rather not travel with your own.
• Combine golf with sightseeing — Antalya’s old town (Kaleiçi), ancient sites and the coast are all close by, and can be built into your itinerary.
