Let's play Golf!
The Adriatic Sea is the coast between Venice and Rimini, it has always been the place where a lot of tourists (expecially Germans and Italians) used to spend their holiday among slot machines, spaghetti, sand castles and shoes markets, until some hoteliers just like the Boni family, who runs the Hotel Majestic, the Hotel Solemare and the Garnì Isabella in Milano Marittima, had the brillian idea to promote golf to couple the holiday on the beach.
Under the guide of a golf expert as Maurizio De Vito Piscicelli and other collegues, the hoteliers developed the concept of the Emilia Romagna Golf Pass which includes about 20 golf courses located in the Emilia Romagna region, from the coast to the hinterland as far as Parma and Piacenza. The Boni family in therefore able to offer golf packages which will meet for sure its guests' needs. Among the offers you can find 10 golf courses within a range of 80 km from the coast. The Golf Club of Cervia (27 holes) is located southern of Ravenna and can be considered one of the most visited golf course in Italy. The golf players agree that everywhere else the prices are quite expencive, the average price for a green fee on the Adriatic coast or in its hinterland is instead quite affordable, it costs about 40 or 50 Euro and moreover you also have a big choice in golf courses.
Beside the Adriatic Golf Club in Cervia also Rimini offers a 18 hole golf course. A top-class experience would be the Golf Club in Bologna which is a superb 18 hole golf course which we do recommend. We should also mention other well-kept courses namely the Golf Club Le Fonti not far from Imola, the Argenta Golf and the Riolo Golf Club. The Riviera Golf Resort in Cattolica and the Golf Club I Fiordalisi in Forlì are small 9 hole golf courses. If you do not have a lot of time, you will find it convenient to play here.
On the Adriatic Coast the high season goes from mid April through end of May and from September until late November, when in a lot of other places the bad weather does not allow to play outood anymore. The Adriatic coast can be easily reached by your own car and on the way there you can even find some gorgeous golf courses like Verona Golf Club, Ugolino in Florence and the Modena Golf Club, which was succesfully created by Bernhard langer.
