Golf in Guatemala
Description:
When was the last time you aimed to hit a ball under the rumble of an erupting volcano?
Golfers from all over the world recognize that the quality of the golf courses in Guatemala is in line with international standards. In Guatemala, you can play golf throughout the year. There is an incredible similarity between golf and the path of the Sun, according to the ancient Mayan Solar Calendar. This Mayan calendar consists of 18 months, twenty days in each month. The last, 5-day month (19th hole – Wayeb) is a preparation and invitation for further travel. There can be no better coincidence!
The best golf club, hotel and restaurant in Guatemala is called La Reunion. The 18-hole golf course was designed by legendary architect Pete Dye. He was assisted by his son Perry Dye, who said Guatemala was one of the most interesting places he had ever worked.
Piet Dai has developed many golf courses around the world, many of which are used in the US for the PGA tournament.
Increasingly, golf competitions are held in Guatemala - the Tour of the Americas and the NGA International Hooters Tour.
