Dalaman Golf Club

The 15th sets the tone for golf at The Dalaman Golf Club, a par five played from an elevated tee with an 82 yard drop. A nature reserve runs along one side of the fairway, while a lake guards the other, so the view is generous but the line from the tee matters. This 18 hole, par 72 course stretches to 6,695 yards from the back markers and has been shaped by Andrew Craven of International Design Group around the natural sandy ground at Sarıgerme. Dunes, pine woodland, wetlands and lakes are part of the routing rather than decoration, with existing vegetation retained throughout. Small changes in level, water hazards and coastal breezes place a premium on placing the ball well, particularly when deciding how much of a corner or carry to take on. Mediterranean views remain in sight across the course, while the wind can give familiar holes a different feel on successive days.

The course opened in August 2026, with playing surfaces prepared for consistent year round golf in a region that receives more than 300 sunny days each year. Before a round, the driving range and separate practice areas provide room to settle into the conditions. TrackMan Range technology is available for those who want to work with ball flight data, and the academy has PGA professionals for individual coaching as well as a club fitting facility. The clubhouse overlooks the course and surrounding landscape, making it a natural place for a drink after play, particularly from the terrace as the light changes towards sunset.

Direct access leads from the club to Hilton Dalaman Sarigerme Resort & Golf, so the accommodation, leisure facilities and choice of 23 restaurants are close at hand between rounds. The resort’s culinary team also prepares the clubhouse food, which keeps the evening straightforward after a day on the course. Dalaman International Airport is around 20 minutes away by road, an easy transfer for a short golf break or a longer stay on this stretch of Türkiye’s Mediterranean coast.
