For keen golfers there are two 18-hole championship golf courses in Basilicata, located within 5km of each other and near Metaponto on the Ionian Sea.

A pinewood surrounds one course and the other is set between orange orchards and olive groves.

The mild climate makes it possible to enjoy a golfing holiday all year-round in these quiet and peaceful surroundings.

The location of these courses, near the coast and also close to many places of interest to visit such Matera and the Magna Grecia provides the perfect opportunity for a ‘mixed’ holiday.

Whilst some members of the group/family can enjoy the golfing, others can explore the area or relax on the beach, keeping everybody happy!
