Golf Clubs � Courses on Cruise Liners

Cruising and golf go hand-in-hand, but how can you swing your golf clubs at sea? Easy, roll up to one of the on-board golf courses.

Once upon a time golfing and cruising were incompatible. Cruise liners are gigantic but even the biggest couldn't squeeze even the smallest of golf courses on board, so do you leave your golf clubs at home?

Golf clubs welcome

You don't need to. Now your partner can enjoy the luxury of a cruise ship and all the activities many of them feature � casinos, paddle tennis, on-board gyms and spas � while you sign up on one of the golf courses on offer and give your golf clubs a dusting off.

Many vacationers are now signing up for cruises to improve their golf. It sounds crazy � after all, swinging your golf clubs over the ocean might cause some damage to the poor porpoises � but now golfing pros are on hand to teach courses on how to improve your swing.

Video technology

Using video technology, it's a chance for golfers to learn from the golf professional.

Several cruise lines now offer on-board golf courses so you don't have to leave your golf clubs at home. The courses include golf swing analysis, showing you how to handle your golf clubs more effectively. Many cruises also have golf excursions on offer at the ports of call. Traditionally on a cruise you can go snorkelling, sailing, hiking or sight seeing, so why not visit some exotic golf clubs and courses?

Golf excursions

It's a chance to play on some of the best courses in the world, and you don't even have to take your golf clubs � you can hire them on board. The experience can be a vacation of a lifetime � imagine boarding boats and tiny airplanes to island hop across the Caribbean's golf courses with your golf clubs as the only luggage you need. From the runway, you can hop straight into golf carts and arrive at the golf clubs and get ready to hit the courses. Central America features some of the most glamorous regions such as Belize and Panama .

As well as the chance to swing your golf clubs, you get to experience some of the most scenic courses in the world, surrounded by the Caribbean ocean or enjoying the Gulf of Mexico , before relaxing for lunch by the pool.

World is your oyster

Of course on a cruise, the world is literally your oyster, so if you're serious about what golf courses you want to swing your golf clubs on, it's worth researching what packages are on offer from the many cruise liners in operation.

Over six million golfers from America alone spend billions of pounds on golf-related travel. And golf and cruising are certainly compatible with a similar target market of wealthy, middle-aged men and women.

So next time you're booking a cruise and don't want to leave your golf clubs at home, why not consider booking one of the golf courses on offer? You could end up training with a pro. And you'll stop world war three breaking out by keeping your spouse happy too.
