What can be better than feeling the refreshing breeze from the sea over your skin as you concentrate on your favourite sport? All this can be yours if you visit the Cengiz Topel Golf Course situated near the Guzelyurt (Omorfo) region. This course boasts two loops of nine holes, with a total par of 70 and pans a distance of a amazing 5,233 yards.
 The Cengiz Topel Golf Course aims at everyone, from beginners to the experts. If you believe you are a good golfer and like a good challenge then the seaside holes are for you. It is somewhat different to your typical golf course, as in some areas the greens are taken over by brown (sand and oil) which creates a great surface for putting.
You can visit this gold course everyday of the week, and you are able to hire clubs for your gold round. If you would like a opportunity to get to know the local golfers and play a round of golf with them, it is highly recommended that you visit on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Keep in mind that you must wear golfing shoes whilst on the course and t-shirts and jeans are not allowed. The gold course greens are watered from a local dam, so it does not use up the drinking water resources of North Cyprus.
