San Andrés Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the best time to play San Andrés Golf Club in Colombia?

We always recommend visiting during Colombia's dry season, typically December to March or July to August. You'll find the course in prime condition then, with less chance of afternoon showers interrupting your round. The weather is generally pleasant, making for a much more enjoyable walk.

What's the signature challenge or unique feature of the San Andrés course layout?

San Andrés truly tests your precision, especially with its tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers. We found the par-3 17th hole particularly memorable, demanding a precise shot over water to a well-guarded green. It's a beautiful, yet demanding, finish to the round.

How does the elevation at San Andrés affect play, and what should I know?

Being near Bogotá, San Andrés sits at a significant elevation, which means your ball will fly further - often 5-10% more than at sea level. We recommend taking an extra club or two less than usual, especially on your approach shots, and staying hydrated throughout your round. It's a unique factor you'll definitely notice.

What are the typical green fees and booking process like for international visitors at San Andrés?

Green fees at San Andrés are quite reasonable for a course of this caliber, usually ranging from $80-120 USD, depending on the day. We strongly advise booking your tee time well in advance, especially on weekends, as it's a popular club with local members. You'll likely need to contact the pro shop directly for visitor reservations.

What's the post-round experience like at San Andrés Golf Club?

After your round, the clubhouse at San Andrés is the perfect spot to relax and soak in the atmosphere. We loved the traditional Colombian lunch options available, offering a delicious taste of local cuisine. It's a welcoming environment where you can unwind and discuss your birdies - or bogeys - with fellow golfers.
