Flamingos Golf

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to play Flamingos Golf for ideal conditions?

You'll find the absolute best conditions from November through April. The weather is comfortably warm and dry, perfect for a full round without the intense summer humidity. We recommend booking your tee time in the morning to beat the heat and enjoy the course at its freshest.

What makes Flamingos Golf unique compared to other courses in Riviera Nayarit?

Flamingos truly stands out with its lush, natural setting and a more forgiving layout. While many courses here are resort-heavy, Flamingos offers a genuine jungle-meets-golf experience, featuring wide fairways bordered by dense tropical foliage and strategically placed lakes. It feels like a true escape into nature.

How challenging is Flamingos Golf for an average player?

We think Flamingos is a fantastic course for most golfers - it's challenging enough to keep you honest but not overly punishing. The fairways are generally generous, allowing for some errant shots, but the numerous water hazards and well-placed bunkers demand thoughtful play, especially on the back nine. You'll definitely use every club in your bag.

What kind of facilities and services can I expect at Flamingos Golf?

You'll find a welcoming, unpretentious clubhouse with all the essentials. The pro shop is well-stocked, and the practice facilities are solid for a pre-round warm-up. Expect friendly, attentive staff who make you feel right at home, and grab a cold drink at the turn - it's a must.

Are there any specific local tips for playing Flamingos Golf effectively?

Our top tip is to embrace the wide fairways but respect the jungle - it's a ball-eater! Focus on keeping your drives in play rather than chasing maximum distance. Also, consider taking a caddy; their local knowledge about breaks on the greens and optimal landing spots is invaluable, especially on the trickier par-3s.
