Malta's temperate climate - only 2 hours from central Europe - makes the Royal Malta Golf Club an ideal venue for off-season golfing breaks both for individuals and groups.
The club dates back to 1888 when golf was first played in the ditches formed by the fortification walls of Valletta. One of the founding members was the then Duke of Edinburgh who was serving in Malta at the time and from whom the club received royal patronage. The club moved to its present location in 1904 and in the course has undergone numerous changes since, the most significant of which is the installation of an irrigation system that helps keep the course evergreen.
Today at par 68, the course is a good test of golf without being unkind to the novice. There are some very interesting par 3s, the most memorable of which, although not the most difficult, is the 6th - nicknamed "The Maid's Bedroom" by the members. The two par 5s present a daunting challenge in the prevailing winds, as do some of the longer par 4s. Altogether a very pleasant golfing experience. A PGA qualified teaching professional is always on call for those who wish to learn the game or improve their handicpa. For non-golfing partners the adjacent sister club Marsa Sports Club offers facilities which include 19 tennis courts, 5 squash courts, a mini golf piste, bowling alley, swimming pool, bar and restaurant. Reservations are essential.
