Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to plan a golf trip to Mexico?

We always recommend visiting Mexico during the dry season, roughly November to May, for the most comfortable playing conditions. You'll avoid the intense summer heat and humidity, especially in coastal areas like the Riviera Maya, and the risk of hurricanes. For the best value and fewer crowds, consider the shoulder months of May or early November.

What kind of golf courses can I expect to find in Mexico?

Mexico offers incredible variety, from dramatic desert layouts in Baja California Sur to lush, jungle-fringed tracks along the Riviera Maya. You'll often play alongside stunning ocean views, especially in destinations like Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta. Expect resort-style courses with excellent conditioning and service, often designed by big names.

Is golf expensive in Mexico, and what should I budget?

Green fees in Mexico can range significantly, but expect to pay a premium for top-tier resort courses, especially in popular destinations like Los Cabos or Cancun. You're looking at $200-400+ USD per round for those signature experiences, often including a cart and range balls. For more local or less-known courses, you can find rounds for $100-150 USD, offering great value.

Are there golf experiences in Mexico beyond the big-name resorts?

Absolutely, and we highly recommend exploring them. While the resort courses are fantastic, venturing slightly off the beaten path can reveal charming local clubs or hidden gems, particularly around cities like Guadalajara or Mexico City. These often provide a more authentic feel and a different perspective on Mexican golf, usually at a more accessible price point.

Should I expect to use a caddie or forecaddie when golfing in Mexico?

While not always mandatory, we strongly recommend taking a forecaddie, especially on your first round at a new course. They are invaluable for reading greens, finding errant shots in the jungle or desert, and providing local course knowledge. It significantly enhances the experience and is a great way to support the local economy.
