Greece Golf: Green Fee Trends for 2026
Costa Navarino's Dunes Course, Greece's first signature design, runs around EUR204 for resort golfers and near EUR245 walk-in, and its four course resort effectively sets the country's prices. We tracked what Greek golf costs in 2026, and where the value sits.

One resort sets the market
Greek golf is unusually concentrated, and that concentration shapes its pricing. The centre of gravity is Costa Navarino in the southwest Peloponnese, which has grown into a four course resort and is home to the Dunes Course, the Bernhard Langer design that opened in 2010 as the first signature course in the country. The Dunes runs at about EUR204 for resort guests and around EUR245 as a walk-in, and the Bay, Hills and International Olympic Academy courses sit in a comparable resort bracket. With so much of Greece's quality golf under one roof, Navarino's rates are effectively the national benchmark.
Beyond Navarino the field thins quickly. Glyfada on the Athens riviera, Crete Golf Club in the east of the island, and Porto Carras in Halkidiki give the visitor a handful of stand alone options at mid range fees, but none rivals the depth of the Peloponnese resort. A practical note for 2026 planners: the Dunes Course is scheduled to close for maintenance in late June into early July, with reduced post maintenance fees the following week, so check the calendar before committing to summer dates. The trend is stable, resort led pricing with limited competition to pull it down.

Our take
Greece is a one resort golf country at the top end, and that is not the criticism it sounds. Costa Navarino is genuinely world class, the Dunes and the Bay in particular offer seaside golf to rival anywhere in the Mediterranean, and gathering four courses in one place makes for an efficient, high quality trip. The fees, around EUR200 to EUR245 at the Dunes, are resort prices rather than bargains, but they buy conditioning and scenery that justify the number for a destination week built on sun, sea and golf.
The planning advice follows from the geography. Base the trip at Navarino, where you can play four distinct courses without moving hotels, and add Glyfada or Crete only if Athens or an island stay is already on the itinerary. Watch the early summer maintenance window on the Dunes, travel in the spring or autumn shoulders to dodge the fiercest Peloponnese heat, and treat Greece as a relaxed resort golf holiday rather than a links pilgrimage.
For the wider picture, our companion studies track green fee inflation across the great courses and rank the best value golf destinations for 2026.

Common questions
How much does it cost to play Costa Navarino in 2026?
The Dunes Course at Costa Navarino runs around EUR204 for resort golfers and near EUR245 as a walk-in, with the Bay, Hills and International Olympic Academy courses in a comparable resort bracket.

Where can you play golf in Greece besides Costa Navarino?
Outside the Costa Navarino resort in the Peloponnese, the main options are Glyfada on the Athens riviera, Crete Golf Club in the east of Crete, and Porto Carras in Halkidiki, all at mid range visitor fees. None matches Navarino's depth, so most golf trips to Greece are built around the Peloponnese resort.

The Dunes Course is scheduled to close for maintenance in late June into early July 2026, with reduced post maintenance green fees the following week. Check the resort calendar before committing to summer dates, and confirm availability directly when booking.
