“Our holidays are all about unique and enriching experiences, and this combination with golf perfectly matches this idea. In order to achieve our goal of becoming the reference company in the world of golf, we have come up with a special initiative, never seen before.”
Roberto Alberti, SVP & Chief Commercial Officer of Costa Crociere
We will be the "Official Cruise Line" of the 2023 Ryder Cup, the most important team golf tournament in the world, which will be held in Italy for the first time ever.
The result of this important partnership is the Cruise&Golf package: a new cruise formula that allows guests to play in some of the most beautiful golf clubs in the Mediterranean, while simultaneously enjoying a holiday on our flagship Costa Smeralda.
​
The new "Cruise & Golf" formula allows you to combine a unique golfing experience with the relaxation and fun of a Costa cruise, on board the most innovative ship in the fleet: Costa Smeralda.
​
By booking 'Cruise & Golf', you will have the opportunity to play at some of the most beautiful clubs in Italy, France and Spain during the ship's stops in the destinations visited. Meanwhile, families on holiday with you can enjoy the on-board facilities, or explore beautiful locations on the company's organised excursions.
