Golf

The Bangkok area is ideal for golf, no matter what time of year. Central Thailand & Bangkok has three distinct seasons - cool (November - February), hot (March - June) and rainy (July - October), with temperatures soaring, up to as much as 35 degrees Celsius or more in the hottest month of April.

Golf is fine during the rainy season as it seldom rains for more than a couple of hours at a time, usually in the evening or night. Probably the best time to take to the links is in the early morning or late afternoon, when the sun is not quite so scorching. Some courses also offer floodlighting, so you can even enjoy a round after sunset.

Green fees in Thailand are well below the international average. Weekday charges may be as low as Baht 250 in Bangkok, with fees rising little over the weekend. Most clubs in Bangkok welcome visiting players. There are no entry restrictions on the majority of courses. Caddies are available for about 200 baht a round (but a tip is of course greatly appreciated). Your smiling, helpful caddie will be able to offer hints and suggestions to get you round the course in record form.

Most courses rent out clubs, shoes and umbrellas for a nominal fee. You're recommended to bring your own, comfortably fitting shoes along though. Golf carts are also available for hire at many international-standard courses.
