Pevero Golf Club, the ideal place to have fun surrounded by nature
A technical and scenic 18-hole course, ideal for golf lovers looking for challenge and beauty in a picturesque setting
Today in 2025, the Pevero Golf Club is an renowned golf resort, important in the international circuit and high quality sports events. Evidenced by the presence for the last two years of the Francesco Molinari Golf Academy where the Italian champion provides lessons to the club’s guests. All this is the result of more than 50 years of history which began in the years of the development of the north-eastern coast of Sardinia. It was the early years of the 1970s and golf was experiencing one of its golden periods. For this purpose, they invited one of the most renowned architects to the island: Robert Trent Jones, an American of English origin who was a discreet amateur golfer, but an excellent designer of 18-hole courses and also single-hole courses such as the ones designed for President Eisenhower at the White House and Camp David. His production was so large - he is supposed to have designed more than 500 golf courses around the world - that he could boast that “the sun never sets on a Robert Trent Jones golf course”.
Pevero Golf ClubAnd one day on the island’s most exclusive coast, he stood before a map of the 60 hectares of Pevero and started to “paint” his creation which would be inaugurated in 1972. The result was a 6-kilometre course with the addition of the surrounding areas. Due to its technical characteristics, Pevero is both a difficult and unusual golf course: the spaces around the green are limited and a lot of precision is needed in hitting the ball, also because the mistral is always ready to disrupt the players’ plans and trajectories. In 1978, Pevero was also the golf course chosen for the Italian Open, won by Dale Hayes from South Africa. There are several interesting facts about this course: it is played between two seas, from north to south from the Gulf of Pevero to the bay of Cala di Volpe; from hole 4, you can see in the distance the islands of Corsica and Caprera at the same time; and the fact that hole 16 is dedicated to Agent 007: a film in the series, The Spy Who Loved Me, was shot in the area around Pevero.
