Why go on a Winter Sun Golf Holiday?

Winter golf in the UK can be bleak. For many, it's time to pack away the clubs, reminisce about summer rounds and dream of longer, sunnier days. Those dedicated enough to spending time on the course might still squeeze in the occasional round when the weather permits, but it's usually under so many layers that it's difficult to swing a club.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

This is winter golf, but not as you know it. This year, picture instead playing under palm trees, and an ice cold beer in the clubhouse after. That's what we're talking about.

What is the best thing about going on a winter golf break?

We asked some Your Golf Travel customers about what they thought the best reasons to go on a golf trip in the winter was.

Weather and course conditions were the top picks!

78% ☀️ The Sunshine
15% ⛳ No winter greens
4% 🏌🏼‍♂️ Practice for summer
3% 🙂 Courses are quieter

In January and February for example, the average temperature in the UK is 5 degrees celsius while somewhere like Morocco is 23 degrees, making it no surprise that 78% of golfers choose the weather as the best thing about taking a winter golf holiday.

Of course there are many more perks to jetting off in January, whether its avoiding the busy backlog on the fairways or those dreaded winter greens laden with divots and long grass. Perhaps you owe it to yourself to not lose your touch round the course - if you continue to play throughout the winter months, in the sunshine, you’ll be more prepared than anyone on the tee-box in the summer.
