San Domenico Golf Club – Borgo Egnazia Resort Activities
The San Domenico Golf Club is located between the ancient city of Egnathia (5thC B.C.) and the Savelletri marina. The course is flanked by the spectacular views of the Adriatic Sea visible from all angles.
Created as a project of the European Golf Design of London (the PGA’s design company headed by Jeremy Slessor and signed by architect Andy Haggar), San Domenico Golf Club was created following the USGA’s highest standards.
A classic links course, the greens are extensive with Bermuda grass used for the fairway and festuca for the roughs. Even though they do not contain misleading slopes, they are not at all easy to master.
A truly unique golf course, flanked by the ancient city of Egnathia with ruins dating from the 5th Century B.C. From hole 8 you can actually see the ruins of the necropolis and remnants of the Roman occupation are all around.
