GOLF >>

Unfortunately the large population coupled with the mountainous terrain means that few golf courses are to be found in South India. A number of the golf courses in the region were started by the British Tea Planters and are therefore in tea growing areas.

There is currently only one 18-hole course in Kerala (Munnar) but it is only open to the local tea planters and residents. There are a few 9-hole courses but mostly not open to non-members.

Tamil Nadu has a few 18-hole golf courses open to visitors including two in the Chennai area, one at Kodaikanal, Coimbatore and a very scenic one at Ooty.

Karnataka has a number of golf clubs and there are a few 18-hole courses that welcome visitors including a few around Bangalore and one in Mysore.
