Kathimerini newspaper recently reported that despite the rapid expansion of the golf industry across Europe, Greece remains behind with investments in golf courses.
If you were to compare Greece to other more developed golf destinations (mostly in northern Europe), Greece should have 46 golf courses. Greece only has six--Crete Golf Club and the Porto Elounda Golf Course on Crete, the Afandou Golf Course on the island of Rhodes, the Corfu Golf Course, the Glyfada Golf Course, (Athens) and the Porto Carras Grand Resort on the Chalkidiki Peninsula, in northern Greece.
DF: Not to worry, a few new courses are slated to come on line soon --in southwestern Peloponnese, at Cavo Sidero on Crete and in Thessaly for the 2013 Mediterranean Games.
