GOLF IN THE RIVIERA NAYARIT
Jesús Carmona, president of the Banderas Bay Hotel and Motel Association and the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau, said that hosting tournaments of this nature is both a great source of pride and a reflection of Riviera Nayarit’s strong commitment to golf and its growth and promotion.
“Golf tourism counteracts the seasonality of tourism activity while attracting tourism with high spending power. The Riviera Nayarit has made a name for itself among golfers by offering the best venues and the most renowned tournaments,” he said.
He added, “The playing experience is of the highest level, not only thanks to the excellent courses designed by outstanding names such as Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, Jim Lipe, Robert Von Hagge & Baril, and Percy Clifford, but also due to the magnificent mountain, tropical forest, and beach landscapes that surround them.”
