Carya Golf Club
About this course
Carya Golf Club sits in Belek, the concentrated resort golf district along Turkey's Mediterranean coast east of Antalya. The course was designed by Thomson Perrett and Lobb, a firm with European design experience, and reflects the modern resort standard that has made Belek a popular winter golf destination for northern European players seeking mild weather and accessible championship-length layouts. The routing moves through relatively flat terrain typical of the Belek area, with design interest created through strategic bunkering, water features, and the placement of native Mediterranean vegetation including pines and olive trees. The course plays to a length that accommodates resort guests of varying abilities while offering enough challenge from the back tees to host competitive events. Several holes incorporate water hazards that require careful club selection and course management. Belek's golf infrastructure developed rapidly in the 1990s and 2000s, and Carya represents the region's emphasis on international design standards and year-round playability. The climate allows the course to maintain conditions through much of the calendar, and the facility caters to visiting golfers with practice areas and amenities common to Mediterranean resort properties. The course serves both individual travelers and groups drawn to the region's combination of golf, coastal proximity, and hotel accommodations.

Getting there
Carya Golf Club sits within Turkey's sun-drenched Mediterranean coast, accessible via Antalya Airport (AYT), roughly 40 kilometers east of the club and a straightforward 45-minute drive through the Belek resort corridor. For those arriving by private aviation, Antalya's facilities accommodate international jets, though the regional landscape - a transition from coastal plains into the pine-forested foothills of the Taurus Mountains - makes the ground journey itself part of the arrival ritual. The drive winds through the Belek district, a landscape of citrus groves and resort developments that gradually yields to the manicured grounds and Mediterranean vegetation surrounding Carya, where the club's contemporary architecture and championship layout emerge as a refined counterpoint to Turkey's ancient Lycian coastline.
