Wed 09.07.2025 Antwerp, Belgium – Rinkven Golf Club Located not far from the city centre, this course offers 36 holes divided into a north and a south course. The relatively slim design of the entire course leads through mature trees, which limit the playing areas accordingly. Both courses have numerous water hazards that repeatedly seek contact with the fairways. However, if you manage not to get distracted, you will greatly enjoy your round of golf in this landscape.
Fri 11.07.2025 Honfleur, France – Golf Barriere Deauville
The course in the hills of Mont Canisy is very close to the mooring point of the EUROPA 2. This course dates back to 1929 and is one of the first created by Tom Simpson. There are three well-designed nine-hole courses, divided into red, white and blue, which provide every opportunity for players of different levels. The nicely planted fairways always weave past mature trees and expansive heathland. This type of layout demands a continuous straight line in terms of play.
Mon 14.07.2025 Falmouth, Great Britain – Falmouth Golf Club The successful mixture of parkland and links course lies above the bay of Pennance Point. This striking location was chosen and set up as a suitable course as early as 1894. Relatively straight and wide fairways almost always create a good starting position. Particularly worth mentioning is hole 13, a par 4 with a length of 254 m (833 ft). It offers unobstructed views of the village and Pendennis Castle on the left side.
Thu 17.07.2025 Bordeaux, France – Golf du Medoc
This multi-award-winning golf course lies in what is possibly the world’s most famous wine-growing region. The Chateaux Course has been a special feature of this 36-hole course since 1989. The typical parkland course blends harmoniously into the surrounding natural environment with its fairways, whilst always maintaining a link to the nearby wine-growing areas. At the wine tasting that follows your game, you can look forward to a lovely glass of red from the region.
