Golf courses and places to stay – South Africa

Regions

Cape Town

From the Cape Peninsula and the northern suburbs this catalogue lists 12 courses, from Royal Cape and Steenberg in the southern suburbs to Milnerton, Durbanville and Atlantic Beach at Melkbosstrand. November to March is southern summer: daytime temperatures in Cape Town are around 25–28 °C and nights around 13–17 °C, with only 2–3 rain days a month (climatestotravel.com). There is no direct flight from Helsinki: you connect via Frankfurt (Lufthansa), Amsterdam (KLM), Doha (Qatar Airways), Dubai (Emirates) or Istanbul (Turkish Airlines); the long leg takes about 11–12 hours and door to door the trip usually takes 16–20 hours with the connection, though there is no time difference to Finnish winter time. Steenberg and Atlantic Beach are golf estates whose villas and apartments the owners rent out privately. Read the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs travel advice for South Africa (um.fi) before travelling; it is updated as the situation changes.
