Today the Mayan Riviera is quickly becoming a golf destination.. With several new courses having just opened or in the final stages of development, the selection of Riviera Maya golf courses carefully planned and designed by major names in modern golf course design who have an appreciation for the game and the environment.
Since the PGA signed licensing agreements to play a tournament in Mayakoba in 2007 (the very first ever money paying PGA tournament played in Mexico, with a purse of $3.5 million) the Mayan Riviera is soon to be on the world golfing map.
