benessere_sport — Marina Velca · Lazio
In the Maremma of Lazio, just steps from the Tyrrhenian coastline and with views reaching the medieval towers of Tarquinia, Marina Velka Golf Club preserves one of the historic courses of northern Lazio. Nine par-3 holes, over fifty years of history, and Mediterranean vegetation wrapping around every fairway.
The nine-hole, par-3 course bears the signature of Ugo Grappasonni, the designer who reshaped its layout to bring out the natural elevation changes and greens guarded by bunkers. Elevated tees and rolling terrain make for a dynamic, unpredictable game, with water hazards and dog-legs that challenge even the most experienced players. A driving range, pro shop, and bar complete the facility.
Marina Velka Golf Academy brings younger players into the game with a structured teaching method and Discovergolf equipment, designed to make learning progressive and never dull. Its family-friendly approach — with separate paths for adults and children — turns the club into a place of shared practice, where golf becomes a family habit among the fairways of the Maremma.
Every detail of the club reflects a care that members recognise: recently redone greens, a course kept in order hole after hole, a welcoming front desk, and a director who is always present and available. The quiet natural setting — Mediterranean vegetation, sea air — turns the time after a round into a moment of genuine calm, far from the rush found at city clubs.
Over fifty years of history in northern Lazio, entrusted to a management that has chosen to renew without losing its roots. The page tells the club's story in detail.
