San Domenico Golf
San Domenico Golf
San Domenico Golf is the embodiment of Mediterranean coastal golf, where the Adriatic Sea meets Puglia’s timeless landscape of olive groves and limestone. Designed by European Golf Design and opened in 2003, the course sits just outside the fishing village of Savelletri di Fasano. It is both authentic and elegant, offering a pure, links-inspired experience wrapped in the warmth and color of southern Italy.
The routing follows the natural curves of the coastline with fairways framed by native grasses and ancient olive trees. Winds off the Adriatic add subtle challenge to an otherwise open and flowing layout. The sea is visible from nearly every hole, and the scent of salt and rosemary lingers in the air. It is a course defined by rhythm and restraint, simple, strategic, and endlessly beautiful in its balance of land and sea.
Cypress and Salt curates San Domenico escapes that immerse guests in Puglia’s coastal luxury. Travelers enjoy stays at nearby Borgo Egnazia or Masseria San Domenico, curated dining that celebrates Puglian cuisine, private boat charters, and guided cultural excursions along the coast. San Domenico is golf as lifestyle, where every round ends with sea views and the taste of the Mediterranean.
