Sunny weather all year round makes Barbados an ideal location for golf and the perfect vacation spot for golfers and "would-be" golfers!
The glorious weather conditions are complemented by world-class golf courses and facilities. Most golf clubs offer professional instruction.
Several hotels and resorts offer special golf packages and Barbados is increasingly being regarded as one of the top islands for a Caribbean golf vacation.
Several golf tournaments are hosted throughout the year, attracting participants from a number of countries including Europe and North America. In December 2006 Barbados hosted the World Golf Championships World Cup. The four-day tournament was held at the Sandy Lane Resort on the west coast of the island.
In October 2004, perhaps the world's most famous golfer - Tiger Woods - chose Barbados as the venue for his wedding. The ceremony took place at Sandy Lane Golf Course.
