'Golf holidays to get more exotic'

23/10/2007

Golf tourists are set to look for holidays in increasingly exotic locales for holidays in the near future, it has been predicted.

According to a survey from KPMG Golf Advisory, Turkey, South Africa and Dubai are all tipped to become some of the most visited locales by tourists seeking specialist golf holidays.

Also set to benefit from an influx of golfers are Portugal and Spain, according to the golf course designers and tour operators polled by KPMG.

Andrea Sartori of KPMG Golf Advisory Services said that the willingness to travel further afield for a golfing break can be partly attributed to the increase of cheap flights to more and more destinations.

He told Travel Daily News: "The golf industry as a whole is likely to benefit from the continued growth of the broader travel and tourism industry.

"However, the traditional golf markets of Europe and North America can expect increasing competition from the emerging golf destinations that offer high quality golfing experiences at affordable prices."
