Thracian Cliffs is the Best Golf Resort in Europe for 2014

“Thracian Cliffs is the most beautiful course I’ve ever
been to, and I certainly know how serious this evaluation is.
I’ve traveled more than any other human being,
I’ve seen a lot and I can say that there is no course like
Thracian Cliffs anywhere in the world. A must play golf course!”
Thracian Cliffs is the
Best Golf Resort in
Europe for 2014
Only 3 years after its official opening and a few months
after hosting the 50th Anniversary Volvo World Match
Play Championship, Thracian Cliffs was awarded as

has been voted by the International Association of
Golf Tourism Operators (IAGTO) – the global trade

the jewel of Gary Player’s portfolio, “This is the most
beautiful golf course in the world”, stated the Black
Knight himself at the Thracian Cliffs’ opening in 2011.

lapping waves of the Black Sea. The game from the back
tee definitely is not for the faint hearted as the distance
measures over 210 m. The golf course has been likened to
