Paradise Coast, Florida Golf - Blue skies. Wide-open fairways. Fresh air.
They’re as much a part of golf’s appeal as the game itself. And they’re exactly what makes golf the perfect way to get outside and engage in some healthy fun.
In fact, the best way to put the pandemic behind you while still staying safe just might be an unforgettable golf getaway. And when “unforgettable golf” is on your wish list, there’s no better place to find it than Florida’s Paradise Coast: Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades.
UNFORGETTABLE GOLF WITH AN UNPARALLELED COMMITMENT TO YOUR SAFETY.
In Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades, the only thing more memorable than the beauty of the destination is the golf that awaits you. It has a well-earned reputation as a golfer’s dream, with the International Association of Golf Travel Operators (IAGTO) actually naming it the “Number 1 Golf Destination in North America.” It offers more than 90 public and private courses designed by names that golfers of every handicap can appreciate: Player, Palmer, Norman, and Nicklaus, just to name a few.
The courses, playing conditions, and weather are so good, the area’s an annual stop for the LPGA and PGA Tours. But incredible courses are just part of what anyone is looking for in a golf getaway these days. True, concerns about the pandemic may have diminished. However, if you’re like most people, you’ll appreciate knowing that the courses you’ll be playing on and the hotels you’ll be staying in are still operating with your health and safety in mind. Fortunately, you can rest assured that you’re in good hands on Florida’s Paradise Coast.
Let’s start with the golf courses. Most courses still offer a variety of safety protocols, such as touchless green fees payments via phone or online, outdoor check-ins and more. They remain committed to following recommended CDC and state protocols for masks, social distancing, and group size until instructed otherwise.
Hotels, restaurants and other local businesses are just as focused on your safety. Many of them have even taken the Paradise Pledge as their promise to make your health and safety their Number 1 priority. With everything from enhanced cleaning protocols to frequent staff wellness checks, you can be sure their commitment to visitor safety will remain in place for the foreseeable future.
