Manchester Airport highlights eight destinations that can be reached by direct flights, offering options for golf holidays in Europe and beyond. The selection includes locations suited to different experience levels, combining well-known courses with resort facilities and coastal settings. Return fares on some routes start from £26, depending on availability and travel dates.

The destinations range from established golf regions to places known for scenic landscapes. Options include the Algarve in Portugal, Paris for access to Le Golf National near Versailles, and Scotland’s Highlands, home to historic links courses. Other routes connect Manchester with Malaga on Spain’s Costa del Sol, Geneva in Switzerland, Tenerife in the Canary Islands, Kalamata in Greece and New York’s Long Island.

Direct Golf Destinations From Manchester

  • Faro (Algarve) – sunny climate and numerous courses
  • Paris – Le Golf National near Versailles

  • Malaga – Costa del Sol resorts for different skill levels
  • Geneva – Alpine golf settings
  • Tenerife – year-round playing conditions
  • Kalamata – resort golf near beaches

Several of these places offer more than golf alone. The Algarve, Costa del Sol and Tenerife combine courses with beaches and warm weather. Geneva adds mountain views and access to the Alps.

Direct flights make golf trips easier to organise, as there is no need to change planes on the way. This can help when planning a holiday that combines time on the course with days at the beach or visits to nearby towns. Having more places available by direct flight also makes it simpler to try destinations that may not have been considered before, whether for a short break or a longer stay during the golf season.
