Golfing in The Gambia The Fajara Golf & Country Club is beautifully situaded, right at the sea in a rich palm and very special landscape. Once it was said in a famous American golfmagazine: “It’s confusing: the course is awful and beautifull together, the greens are brown and the grass is almost bush. But our advise: Do it!, every golfer must have been once in Fajara”. And that's how it is.
18-Holes par 69 …. don't expect a super course; it cannot be more African: brown and bush, colourfull and adventurous! There will be played with caddies, no golfcars and – without saying in this climate and landscape – with brownsweepers. Clubs and balls can be rented; pro's are present for eventual lessons. Drinks can be ordered everywhere. There's no real dress code but never forget to bring your cap; it can get very hot.
At the “nineteenth” you'll find facilities for swimming, squash and biljart. So, a special golftrip, a special experience.
Accommodation You stay at Fajara Golf apartments, quietly situated in Fajara, a typical African residential area at 1.000 meters from the Fajara Golf & Country Club.
