The news: the PGA National course in southern Tuscany
Argentario Golf Club sits at Porto Ercole on the Monte Argentario promontory, a beautiful and lesser known corner of southern Tuscany. The course and driving range were inaugurated in 2006 to a design by the architect David Mezzacane working with the professional golfer Baldovino Dassu, and it plays as a par 71 of around 6,218 metres on the slopes above the Orbetello lagoon.
The headline that travelling golfers should know for 2026 is the course's standing and its season. Argentario has carried the title of PGA National Italy course since 2019, the home of professional golf in the country, and the mild coastal microclimate means it is one of the few quality Italian courses you can genuinely play all year. That combination is what makes it worth a closer look.
A course built into the landscape
Argentario is resort golf with a sense of place. The holes climb and fall across hillside terrain with the lagoon, the sea and the Tuscan hills as a constant backdrop, so the views change with almost every shot. It is not a brute in length, but the elevation, the wind off the water and the clever green sites keep it interesting for good players while staying enjoyable for a holiday group.
There is substance behind the scenery too. The course sits within a protected natural area and has earned eco certification for bio compatible maintenance, a point of pride for the club and increasingly for the golfers who choose it. The full facts box and signature holes sit on our Argentario course page.
Indicative 2026 green fees and access
Argentario is attached to the Argentario Golf and Wellness Resort and welcomes visiting golfers as well as resort guests, taking tee time bookings directly. The indicative fee below moves with season and is often softened by resort and package rates; treat it as indicative and confirm before booking.
| What you book | Notes | Indicative 18 holes |
|---|---|---|
| Visitor green fee | in season, prime times | around 150 euros |
| Resort guest or package | stay and play rates | usually reduced |
Indicative 2025 to 2026 green fees, single round of 18 holes. Resort and package rates vary. Always confirm directly before booking.
Because the microclimate keeps the course open year round, the smartest value is often outside the Italian high summer, when the weather is still kind, the resort is quieter and rates ease. The nearest airports are at Rome and Grosseto, with Rome the usual gateway, putting Argentario within easy reach for a long weekend or a Tuscan golf and wellness break.
Our take
Our take is that Argentario is one of Italy's most appealing resort packages for golfers who want quality without the crowds. It does not have the championship aura of the country's tournament venues, but the combination of a PGA National designation, a genuine year round season and a setting this lovely is hard to match, and the wellness side makes it an easy sell for a mixed group or a couple.
Treat it as the anchor of a southern Tuscany break rather than a single round. Pair it with the wider riches of the region using our Tuscany courses guide and the best courses in Italy ranking, line up a luxury option such as Castiglion del Bosco in the Tuscan hills, and let the Italy golf hub and our Italy golf holidays shape the trip.
