There’s a place where the Mai Thai’s never run out and the waterfalls can be heard from just about anywhere on the island. The place is Maui and the best time of year to go is up for debate. Year round there is spectacular weather and activities to take part in. Big wave surfers from around the world and those looking to escape blizzard bound East Coast Winters are drawn to Hawaii’s mild winters and big waves. The landscapes and sunsets in the summer and spring on Maui are some of the most spectacular and awe inspiring you can imagine. So how could Maui be an even better holiday or seasonal resident getaway? Add golf and stir generously.
Golfing, The Second Oldest Hawaiian Tradition
Most people have heard of the time honored Polynesian tradition of surfing, but few know that golfing is a great Hawaiian pastime. Okay, so golf may not be as traditional to Hawaii as surfing, but you’d think it was the way some of the courses here are maintained. The rich volcanic soil, the beautiful cliffs and coasts and let’s not forget about the swaying palm trees and fragrant and fluorescent flowers make for some pretty darn spectacular courses. But many golf enthusiasts put playing a round out of the heads when planning their trip to Hawaii. Understandably, it’s hard to ask your family to excuse you for half a day or so to go and play a round by yourself. But if you can—it sure is worth it. Golf courses in Wailea, Hawaii especially are not only beautiful but affordable too.
Planning To Golf In Hawaii
Thanks to new airline fees, most golfers think twice before bringing their clubs on vacation. And that’s fine; whether you use FedEx or new services such as Ship Stix, there are ways to get around airline fees, but they’re will be some kind of fee. Odds are, you’ll probably pay close to what you’d pay to rent clubs. Many golf courses in Wailea, Hawaii and throughout Hawaii have some of the best rentals in the country. Manufacturers know a high percentage of golfers are going to rent and provide courses with new lines of irons and woods as rentals. It’s a great chance to try some new clubs if you’re in the market. Player cards and included meals are another great way to save money on a round or to make a day of it. The single best thing you can do to ensure a fun round on your vacation is research and compromise. Research inexpensive ways to play and then find something amazing for your wife and/or family to do while you’re enjoying some of the best golf you’ll ever play!
