Friendly and challenging golf experience close to the city!
Kokkola Golf located only few minutes away from town square, you will find a golf course that offers both front- and back rounds which allows you two completely different golfing experiences.

The nine first park-like built holes are flat and fairways are fairly wide. The greens on this are are clear in shape and easily approachable in many places.

The remaining nine holes are designed in a more wooded and water enclosed terrain which requires the player accuracy. The many beautifying water obstacles complicate the game, particularly at the end of the round.

Meripuisto offers something for the whole family. There is a big sandy beach if you feel like a dip in the sea. Meripuisto also features beach volleyball courts, a skate park, a disc golf course, an outdoor gym and an padel court.

More activities are offered by the adjacent Kokkola Camping, where you can play a round of minigolf, for example. Distance from the centrum 2,5 km.
