4 Day Cyprus Golf Itinerary
Cyprus packs four contrasting courses into the sunny southwest around Paphos, from clifftop golf above the sea to a mountain layout with the island's only island green, all within easy drives of one base. This four day plan plays the lot from a single Paphos base, with the warm, settled climate that makes the island a year round golf escape. Here is the trip, with indicative 2026 green fees and drive times.

Who this trip suits
This is the Cyprus golf break at its most efficient, four days, four good courses, one comfortable base near Paphos. It suits a group or a couple who want warm, reliable golf on a short flight from Europe, with the sea, the food and the history of the island around it. Cyprus golf is concentrated in the southwest, so every course on this route is a short drive from Paphos, and the southern climate means you can play it in comfort across spring, autumn and a mild winter. It flexes easily for a non golfing partner or a rest day, and it pairs well with the beaches and the ancient sites of the Paphos coast.
The two things that shape the trip are your base and the season. Stay near Paphos and you are within forty minutes of all four courses, while spring and autumn give you warm, settled golf without the searing summer heat, and winter offers the cheapest sunshine golf in the Mediterranean. Get those right and four days here feel like a proper trip rather than a quick hit.
The 4 day plan
Aphrodite Hills Golf
Open at the island's signature resort course, a Cabell Robinson design of 2002 set on two plateaus above the sea, famous for its par three seventh played across a deep ravine from one clifftop to the next. Polished, dramatic and a short drive east of Paphos at an indicative 100 to 135 euro, with the resort's hotels and restaurants for the evening. The natural place to start.
Minthis Golf Club
Up into the hills above Paphos to Minthis, set at around 550 metres around a twelfth century monastery, a Donald Steel design later revised by Mackenzie and Ebert. Cooler and beautifully scenic, its highlight is the par three thirteenth played to the only island green in Cyprus. A complete contrast to the coast and superb value at an indicative 80 to 110 euro.
Elea Estate Golf Club
A Sir Nick Faldo signature design north of Paphos, combining a modern layout with classic strategic golf through olive groves and rolling country with sea views. Technically demanding but fair and a fine test for the better player at an indicative 90 to 125 euro, with a stylish clubhouse to match. The most contemporary round of the trip.
Secret Valley Golf Club
Finish at Secret Valley, set in a striking valley of dramatic rock formations near Aphrodite Hills, a varied layout with narrow fairways and clever bunkering that rewards a strategic round. Friendly, scenic and the best value on the route at an indicative 60 to 90 euro, an easy drive from base and a relaxed close before you fly home.

When to go and where to stay
Play Cyprus in spring, from March to May, or autumn, from October to November, for warm, settled weather and the courses in good order, with summer hot enough to need early tee times and winter mild, quiet and the cheapest sunshine golf in the Mediterranean. For this short route, stay near Paphos or at the Aphrodite Hills resort for all four nights and you are within forty minutes of every course, with the coast, the harbour and the ancient sites for the downtime. A hire car keeps the short hops simple. Leave time for a long lunch and a swim. Always confirm rates and availability before booking.

Cyprus itinerary questions
What is the best 4 day golf itinerary in Cyprus?
A four day trip covers Cyprus's headline golf from a single Paphos base. Open at the clifftop Aphrodite Hills, a Cabell Robinson design with its famous ravine carry, play the mountain golf of Minthis with the only island green on the island on day two, take in the Nick Faldo course at Elea Estate, and finish at Secret Valley among its dramatic rock formations. Four contrasting courses, all within easy drives of Paphos, make an ideal golf week in the sun. Always confirm current tee times and fees directly before booking.
How much does a 4 day Cyprus golf trip cost in green fees?
Four rounds on this route come to roughly 320 to 470 euro per golfer in peak 2026 green fees, with Aphrodite Hills and Elea at the higher end and Minthis and Secret Valley lower. Winter and shoulder rates, twilight times and resort packages can trim the total. These are indicative figures that vary by date, so always confirm current fees directly before booking.
Where do you play golf in Cyprus?
Cyprus golf is concentrated in the Paphos region in the southwest, where four courses sit within about 40 minutes of each other: Aphrodite Hills above the sea, Minthis in the hills at around 550 metres, Elea Estate by Nick Faldo, and Secret Valley among its rock formations. A single Paphos base covers them all with short drives, which is what makes a four day golf trip here so easy. Always confirm rates and availability before booking.
When is the best time to golf in Cyprus?
Cyprus is a year round golf destination, but spring, from March to May, and autumn, from October to November, are the sweet spots, warm and settled with the courses in good order. High summer is very hot, so play early, while winter is mild and a popular sunshine escape from northern Europe with the lowest green fees of the year. Always confirm current rates and tee times before booking.
