It’s a strange feeling the first time you look at your watch and realize it’s close to midnight, and the sun is still up. Not fading. Not setting. Just… there. At Lofoten Links, that’s not unusual. It’s the rhythm of the place during the summer months. And it changes everything about how you experience the game.

You don’t think about tee times the same way. There’s no rush to get out early. No pressure to finish before dark. The idea of “one more hole” doesn’t really apply, because there’s no clear end to the day.

You just play.

Rounds start late, almost by instinct. Dinner blends into golf. Golf blends into something that doesn’t feel tied to a schedule at all. At some point, you realize you’re teeing off at a time that would normally feel impossible.

10pm. 11pm. Even later. And it doesn’t feel unusual.

The light stays consistent, low, soft, stretched across the landscape in a way that makes everything feel a little more defined. The mountains, the water, the fairways, they all take on a kind of clarity that’s hard to describe until you see it. It’s not just that you can play at midnight.

It’s that it feels like the best time to.

There’s a quiet that sets in. Fewer people. Less movement. Just the course and the surroundings, without anything competing for your attention. You start to lose track of time in a way that doesn’t happen anywhere else. A round doesn’t feel like 18 holes, it feels like something you move through without thinking about when it ends. And that’s when it really clicks.

Once you’ve played golf with the sun still up at midnight, it’s hard to think of the game the same way again.

The trips that come together here are built around that idea—leaning into the midnight sun, rather than trying to work around it. Letting the experience define the schedule.

Take a look at the full itinerary and see what that week actually looks like:
Only two spots left!

The setting in Los Cabos does a lot of the work for you.

Ocean on one side. Desert on the other. Light that changes throughout the day in a way that makes even a simple round feel more dramatic than it should.

But what makes a golf trip here actually come together isn’t just the location.

It’s the mix of courses.

Because when it’s done right, each round feels different—not just in layout, but in how you experience the place itself.

That’s what stands out about playing Solmar Links, Cabo del Sol, and Quivira Golf Club over the course of a few days.

They don’t overlap. They build on each other.

Solmar Golf Links

At Solmar Links, everything feels open from the start.

Set between the Pacific and the desert, the course has a kind of quiet to it, wide fairways, natural movement, and just enough challenge to keep you engaged without forcing anything. It’s the kind of round where you settle in quickly, take in the surroundings, and let the experience come to you.

The Cactus Island Green is maybe the most iconic hole in Mexico.

Cabo Del Sol

This is where the landscape starts to feel more defined. The routing moves you through a series of environments, desert stretches, elevation changes, glimpses of the ocean that come and go. It feels more structured, a little more deliberate, and you start to see how the terrain itself shapes the round.

It’s not just scenic, t’s thoughtful.

Quivira Golf Links

This is the one people talk about.

The course climbs, drops, and wraps along the coastline in a way that feels almost exaggerated at times. Clifftop holes. Views that don’t really make sense until you’re standing there. Moments where you stop mid-round just to take it in.

It’s dramatic, but in a way that still feels playable.

And that’s what ties it all together.

You’re not just playing three good courses, you’re seeing three different versions of what golf in Los Cabos can be.

Open and relaxed. Structured and varied. Elevated and unforgettable.

Each round shifts the perspective slightly.

None of them feel redundant.

And that’s usually the difference between a trip that’s good and one that actually stays with you.

Because when the golf is built this way, the rest of the experience starts to fall into place around it.

The trips that work here tend to lean into that balance—choosing the right courses, spacing them out properly, and letting the setting do the rest.

That’s exactly how the Los Cabos Golf Fiesta 2026 is structured.

A few rounds, each with a distinct feel, all connected in a way that makes the week feel complete without ever feeling rushed.

Because in a place like this, it’s not just about how much golf you play.

It’s about how different each round feels when you do.

Take a look at the full itinerary and see how the week comes together:

It actually started that morning at breakfast.

We were sitting at Romanos Restaurant, which, on its own, is worth slowing down for. The kind of breakfast where you don’t feel rushed to finish, fresh fruit, local dishes, good coffee, and a setting that makes it easy to stay a little longer than planned.

Somewhere in the middle of it, the idea came up.

Nothing complicated, just a simple plan to head to the marina after our round at the The Bay Course and get out on the water.

There were ten of us, and that was enough.

By the time we finished the round and made our way down to the marina, the day had already settled into that easy rhythm. No one was in a rush. No one was trying to fit anything else in.

The catamaran was waiting when we got there.

We stepped on board, kicked off our shoes, and within minutes had champagne in hand and a spread of charcuterie laid out in front of us. The water was completely calm. The sky was clear. It felt like one of those afternoons that didn’t need anything added to it.

As we moved out into the bay, everything slowed down even more.

Our guide started pointing out different parts of the coastline, walking us through the history of the area, stories tied to the bay that you wouldn’t really pick up on otherwise. It added something subtle, but meaningful, to the experience.

At one point, we drifted toward a natural rock arch rising out of the water.

The boat slowed as we came into view of it, and at the same time, the sun started dropping toward the horizon. Everything lined up in a way that felt almost too clean to plan.

Someone put on “Keys” by Coldplay, and I felt me heart in my chest.

It was one of those moments where you’re aware of it happening while you’re in it.

On our we back, we passed a yacht that someone pointed out belonged to LeBron James, which felt surreal in its own way, but even that just blended into the moment.

By the time we got back to the marina, it didn’t feel like the night was over.

We walked over to Kochili, right along the water, and sat down without much of a plan.

When the server came over, we asked what he’d recommend.

He paused for a second, smiled, and said he’d take care of it.

From there, dishes just started arriving.

Fried zucchini. Greek salad. Calamari. Shrimp saganaki. Fresh grouper. Grilled mushrooms. One after another, without overthinking it, and all exactly what you’d hope it would be.

No one was checking the time. No one was asking what was next.

It just carried on.

It’s easy to think of a trip like this as being defined by the golf—and to a large extent, it is.

But it’s usually something like this that stays with you.

Not overplanned. Not overbuilt.

Just a simple idea in the morning that turns into a full day you end up talking about long after you’ve left.

It’s a good reminder that at Costa Navarino, the best parts of the trip don’t always happen on the course.

Take a look at the full itinerary and see how the week comes together:

Not every Scotland golf trip feels the same.

The difference usually comes down to the golf you build it around.

Some itineraries try to check boxes, moving quickly, fitting in as many big names as possible. Others take a different approach, focusing less on quantity and more on the kind of experience each round delivers.

The Highlands lend themselves to the second.

Because the golf here isn’t just about reputation, it’s about variety, character, and the way each course shows you a different side of the game.

That’s exactly what this trip is built on.

It starts with something that feels close to the origin of the game.

Brora Golf Club

At Brora Golf Club, golf is still played in a way that feels almost unchanged. Sheep move freely across the fairways. Electric fences surround the greens. The conditions aren’t manufactured, they’re part of the landscape. It’s raw, a little unpredictable, and completely memorable.

From there, you get a different kind of links experience at Fortrose & Rosemarkie Golf Club.

Fortrose & Rosemarkie Golf Club.

Set on a narrow peninsula along the Moray Firth, it’s more contained, more strategic, and shaped as much by wind and positioning as anything else. It’s the kind of course that doesn’t overwhelm you, but stays with you because of how it plays.

Then there’s Royal Dornoch Golf Club.

Royal Dornoch Golf Club – Championship Course

For a lot of golfers, this is the round they’ve been thinking about long before the trip ever takes shape. And it delivers in a way that’s hard to fully explain until you’re there, natural routing, firm ground, subtle greens, and a feeling that the course has simply existed that way for generations.

It’s followed by the Struie Course, which offers something slightly different.

Still set in the same landscape, but more forgiving, more open, and a chance to experience the setting without the same level of pressure. It balances the Championship Course in a way that makes the overall experience feel more complete.

And then there’s a shift.

Cabot Highlands – Castle Stuart Links

At Castle Stuart Links, the game takes on a more modern form. The views open up across the Moray Firth. The design feels intentional in a different way, built to highlight the setting, while still staying true to the principles of links golf.

It’s a contrast, but an important one.

Because what makes this itinerary work isn’t just the individual courses, it’s how they come together.

You move from raw and traditional, to strategic and understated, to one of the purest links experiences anywhere, and then into something more modern and expansive.

Each round adds something different. None of them feel redundant.

And that’s what defines the trip.

Not just that you’ve played Scotland, but that you’ve experienced the range of what golf here actually is.

The trips that stay with people tend to be built this way. Not overloaded, not rushed, but structured around courses that complement each other and create something more complete over the course of the week.

That’s exactly what this one does.
