Sri Lanka is relatively unknown in the field of Golf, but surprisingly the country has three of the finest 18 hole courses in Asia. Golf started in Sri Lanka over 100 years ago with the Sri Lanka Amateur Golf Championship in the 1890's, which follows the British Amateur as the Oldest National Championship in the world. The courses are situated in Colombo, Nuwara Eliya and Digana near Kandy. All have distinctive terrain and climate conditions, which contributes to the enjoyment and challenge (as you could be playing golf in two different countries). Sri Lanka is also proud to announce its newest Golf course, The Water's Edge in Colombo which is more than just a golf club, offering more of a Country Club atmosphere with a swimming pool, gym, Health Spa and restaurants.
All of Sri Lanka's golf courses offer challenging golf along with well kept greens in magnificent surroundings of coconut palms, winding hills and large reservoirs, with an abundance of tropical birds and wildlife.
