El Camaleón Mayakoba Golf Course

The El Camaleón Mayakoba Golf Course was created by legendary Australian golfer, Greg Norman. It gets its name from the chameleon because this diverse course takes you through various changes, including areas of the Mayan jungle, mangrove wetlands, and the coastline. You’ll wind along several miles of fresh-water canals framed by limestone walls, dodge cenotes, and have the privilege of hitting on two holes that open up to spectacular views of the Caribbean and Cozumel Island. This favorite among Cancun golf resorts is home to the Mayakoba Golf Classic, the first PGA tour event to take place outside of the US or Canada.

Par for this course is 72, and green fees include golf carts equipped with GPS, as well as range balls before the round. Beverage cart service is also available, and professional line golf clubs can be rented in the Pro Shop. To fully experience El Camaleón, try out the practice area first, where you can drive, chip, and putt to get a feel for the course before you begin. You can also get an all-day pass for unlimited range balls throughout the day, or participate in one of a variety of clinics at the only Jim McLean Golf School in Latin America.

This unique course is also a sanctuary for local wildlife, and you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of iguanas, spider monkeys, or various birds and other animals. It is also located along the Riviera Maya near Cancun and Playa Del Carmen and can be found inside the Mayakoba Resort Complex.
