Golf Tours in Sri Lanka: Highland charm and coastal beauty

Sri Lanka is one of Asia's most charming and underrated golf destinations. In a single compact island, groups can play historic highland golf among the tea plantations of Nuwara Eliya, championship coastal courses in the sunny south and elegant parkland golf in Colombo — all alongside ancient cities, wildlife safaris and some of the finest beaches in the region.

Olimpia Tour designs and manages fully tailored golf tours in Sri Lanka for golf societies, corporate groups, clubs and groups of friends. Working with our specialist luxury golf partners across Asia, we arrange your tee times, caddies, private transfers and handpicked accommodation, and build the rounds and rest days around exactly what your group wants. Courses and tee times are subject to availability, and prices are on request.

Where to play golf in Sri Lanka

These are the regions we build Sri Lanka golf holidays around — combine one, several or all of them in a single itinerary:

Nuwara Eliya (hill country)

High in the cool tea country sits one of Asia's most atmospheric golf courses, a colonial-era highland layout surrounded by plantations and mountain air. It is a bucket-list round and the scenic heart of any Sri Lanka golf tour.

The south coast

Sri Lanka's sunny south is home to modern championship coastal golf beside the Indian Ocean, paired with luxury beach resorts — the ideal place to combine serious golf with relaxation.

Colombo

The capital offers a well-established parkland course within the city, a convenient and enjoyable base to start or finish your trip close to the international airport.

What your golf tour includes

Every tour is a single, fully managed journey. As standard we arrange:

  • Preferred tee times and green fees across the island
  • Experienced caddies, buggies where available and full clubhouse access
  • International flights on request and private transfers throughout
  • Handpicked luxury hotels, tea-country bungalows and beach resorts
  • Optional matchplay or stableford competition and a prize-giving dinner
  • A dedicated tour manager and on-ground support
  • Experiences for non-golfers — tea estates, safaris, culture and beaches

Add a group golf tournament

If your group has the numbers, we can build a full tournament into your Sri Lanka tour — matchplay, stableford or scramble formats, daily leaderboards, handicap management and a closing prize-giving dinner. We handle the format, scoring and on-course logistics so your group simply plays and competes.

How to plan your tour

We recommend starting 9 to 18 months ahead for the best tee times, flight prices and course availability. Tell us your group size, how many rounds you want to play, your preferred regions and your travel dates, and we will design the itinerary and prepare a tailored quote. You can start with our Build Your Tour planner, explore our full range of golf tours across Asia, or read our guide to international golf tours for groups.

When you are ready, get in touch and our team will handle everything — so your group's only job in Sri Lanka is to play.

Frequently asked questions

Where do you play golf in Sri Lanka?

Sri Lanka offers three very different regions: the historic highland golf of Nuwara Eliya, championship coastal courses in the south, and parkland city golf in Colombo, which we combine into one island itinerary.

Why choose Sri Lanka for a golf tour?

Sri Lanka packs remarkable variety into a compact island — highland and coastal golf, tea plantations, ancient culture, safaris and beaches — making it perfect for mixed groups.

When is the best time for a golf tour in Sri Lanka?

The season from about December to March generally offers the most reliable golfing weather, with the cool highlands pleasant year-round.

How much does a golf tour in Sri Lanka cost?

There is no fixed price. Cost depends on the courses played, number of rounds, accommodation, group size and dates, with flights usually the largest item. Every Sri Lanka golf tour is quoted individually, so prices are on request.
