Golf in Wakayama

Whether you’re a scratch player, a weekend golfer or a beginner, golf in Japan is an amazing experience. With over 2,300 golf courses throughout its islands, Japan offers a unique array of golf opportunities. Of course, the top one hundred courses are reserved for members or private invitation, but the rest are open to visitors. Prices range from affordable to astronomic, but generally speaking, 18 holes of golf plus lunch plus golf cart will cost approximately 10,000 yen per person.

Having a female caddie join your group is an affordable and enlightening experience as she is extremely knowledgable about the course (having played it countless times during her training) so she knows the exact distance and the perfect angle to hit the ball successfully. In addition, she is able to ascertain the ability of each player so that after the first couple of holes, she can easily suggest the club to use according to the individual. An added bonus is that the golf carts are fully automated so they can be manoeuvred with a handheld device.
