Porto Carras Grand Resort

At the Toroneos gulf, in the midst of the extraordinary landscape of Chalkidiki, lies the 18-hole championship course of Porto Carras. The golf course of the exclusive hotel resort is open all year and was designed by the renowned American golf course designers G.S. Cornish and W.G. Robinson. With Olive Course, they created a par 72 golf course that not only satisfies the highest demands, but also meets any aesthetic wishes through its harmonious embedding into nature. In 2003, the course in the Porto Carras Grand Resort was renewed with care by Roy Mc Ray. The Olive Golf Course is 6,058 meters long in total (for men) and open to golfers with a minimum handicap of 54. On site, there is a driving range with putting, pitching and chipping greens, multilingual golf instructors as well as a Pro Shop. Clubs and other golf accessories can be rented there. With its ancient olive and pine trees, the Porto Carras Grand Resort is often called “romantic”. This is due to the appealing and well-kept design of the fairways, as well as a fantastic view of the nearby mountains of Itamos and Meliton. Some of the holes also offer a view of vineyards, the Villa Galini and the crystal clear, turquoise, shimmering Mediterranean Sea with many untouched bays. The enchanting course of the Porto Carras Grand Resort lies about 120 kilometers from Thessaloniki and can easily be reached by car.
