Mar del Plata Golf Club cancha nueva

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the ideal season to play Mar del Plata Golf Club's new course?

Summer (December-February) is popular but can be crowded and hot, so we prefer spring (September-November) or autumn (March-May) for milder weather and fewer crowds. You'll find the course in excellent condition during these shoulder seasons, perfect for enjoying the coastal breezes without the peak season rush.

How challenging is the 'cancha nueva' compared to other courses in Argentina, and what makes it unique?

The 'cancha nueva' presents a fair challenge, not overly punishing but demanding strategic play, especially with the coastal winds. Its unique character comes from the links-style feel and the way it integrates the natural undulations of the terrain, a refreshing contrast to some of Argentina's more parkland-style tracks. You'll need to think your way around here, which we always appreciate.

What should I expect to pay for a round at Mar del Plata Golf Club, and is it worth it?

Green fees at Mar del Plata Golf Club are quite reasonable for a course of this caliber, especially when compared to similar quality tracks in other countries. We consider it excellent value for money; you're getting a well-maintained course with a rich history and fantastic ocean views without breaking the bank. Expect to pay around the mid-range for Argentina, but always check their official site for current rates.

What are the must-see holes or unique features of the new course?

Keep an eye out for the par-3 12th, which offers stunning ocean vistas and can be tricky with the wind, and the finishing stretch from 16 onwards. The course truly shines with its natural bunkering and the way the holes flow seamlessly with the landscape, providing a genuine sense of place. You'll appreciate the thoughtful design that makes each hole memorable.

Any practical tips for visiting Mar del Plata Golf Club, especially regarding amenities or post-round activities?

After your round, definitely grab a drink or a meal at the clubhouse - the views from the terrace are fantastic, and it's a great spot to soak in the atmosphere. We recommend booking your tee time in advance, especially on weekends, and consider staying in the city center for easy access to the course and Mar del Plata's vibrant dining scene. Taxis are readily available and affordable for getting around.
