New Zealanders are often reminded of their larger, northwest neighbor of Australia. When it comes to golf, however, New Zealand has no need to feel insecure, as it's a sporting nation that loves the game and has numerous world-class golf courses to choose from, as well as great lodging and resorts.
All it takes is just one visit, and most travelers will quickly see all that this remarkable island nation has to offer that makes it not only stand out from its neighbor Australia, but other countries as well. Because make no mistake, New Zealand can stand on its own as a world-class golf destination.
As a golf destination, New Zealand has always lived in the shadow of Australia, but the Kiwis deserve significantly more golf clout.
Golf is the most popular sport in New Zealand among men and second for women, and the country has the highest number of courses per capita in the world. We're not talking lousy munis baked to a nice golden brown under the scorching southern hemisphere sun. New Zealand boasts three tracks in Golf Digest's list of the "100 Best Courses Outside The United States," including the revered Kauri Cliffs Golf Club & Lodge.
Combined with some of the most beautiful landscape in the world, New Zealand is a golf destination second to none.
