Limestone plateaus, rolling hills, and verdant mountain ranges all usually make great spots for golfing and the upper regions of Cebu aren’t short on land masses that are perfect for the sport.
The subtle inclines and rolls of the mountainous areas are perfect for creating challenging angles to hit the ball while the level grounds are meant for executing finishing putts.
Moreover, Cebu meets the prerequisite of having a great view of nature with the many natural wonders that it holds which makes Cebu Golfing a double-purpose activity – playing sports and sightseeing.
Take a swing at these 5 golf courses which can all be found in Cebu.
