Frequently Asked Questions

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

We find late spring (May-June) and early autumn (September) offer the ideal balance for golf on Gotland. You'll enjoy pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and often slightly lower prices than the peak summer months. The courses are typically in fantastic condition, and the island's natural beauty truly shines.

What kind of golf courses will I find on Gotland, and what makes them unique?

Gotland offers a diverse mix, from challenging coastal links-style layouts with stunning sea views to more sheltered parkland courses. You'll often play alongside ancient stone walls or even have a glimpse of Visby's medieval spires, giving each round a truly unique, historical feel. We particularly love the variety and how well-integrated they are with the island's landscape.

How do golf costs on Gotland compare to mainland Sweden, and what should I budget for?

Green fees on Gotland are generally comparable to many quality courses on the Swedish mainland, but your main budget considerations will be ferry travel and accommodation. During peak summer, prices for both can rise significantly, so we strongly recommend booking your ferry crossing and lodging well in advance. Expect to pay around 600-900 SEK for a round, depending on the course and season.

What's the most practical way to get around Gotland to play its golf courses?

Renting a car is absolutely essential for a golf trip to Gotland; it gives you the freedom to explore all seven courses scattered across the island. Public transport is quite limited, and you'll want the flexibility to visit different clubs and enjoy the island's sights between rounds. Book your rental car ahead of time, especially during high season.

Beyond the golf courses, what unique experiences does Gotland offer?

You absolutely must explore Visby, the UNESCO World Heritage city, with its incredible medieval walls and charming cobblestone streets. We also recommend a day trip to Fårö to see the dramatic rauks (sea stacks) and enjoy the rugged coastline. Don't leave without trying some local saffron pancakes - it's a delicious, unique island treat.
