GAGA Announces 2012 Hellenic Golf Excursion to Navarino in Messinia, Greece

In coordination with and with special thanks to the American Hellenic Athletic Foundation, the Hellenic Golf Foundation and the Athletics Order of AHEPA, the Greek American Golf Association (GAGA) is pleased to invite you to an unprecedented opportunity to experience a unique, world class golf experience. The Boston based corporation, which focuses on the preservation of Hellenic heritage in America through the popular game of golf, has announced its first overseas trip to Costa Navarino located in Messinia, Peloponnese Greece.

Your stay includes four nights at the Starwood Westin Resort and the excitement of playing golf at two of the most picturesque golf courses in Europe. Golfers of all levels are invited to join us for a fun filled adventure. We guarantee kefi and great parea. http://www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/index.html?language=en_US&propertyID=3289) 

The 18-hole Dunes&Course, located at the Resort and designed by Bernhard Langer, is set in a landscape of diverse topography with spectacular sea and river views; incorporating some links style features in areas closest to the sea, with tall dunes dividing some of the holes adjacent to the golden beach. Parts of the course venture into olive and fruit groves, while some holes run along a small river that meanders through the site. Combined with large undulating greens, wide fairways and steep faced pot bunkers, the links element of the course adds to its unique style and playability.

The 18hole Bay&Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., is situated at Navarino Bay. This seaside course offers sublime sea views and two holes playing along the historic bay. The course meanders through three distinct natural environments: the Seaside, Canyon and Grove holes provide striking contrasts that create a dramatic and memorable round.

Both courses have a golf academy featuring a state of theart teaching center and are managed by Troon Golf, the world’s leading highend golf development, marketing and Management Company.
