Clark / Angeles Golf Courses | Play Golf in Clark
Angeles City and Region
Angeles City is roughly just over a two-hour drive north from Manila’s International Airport.
Well known for its airport base built for the US in the 60’s, and with one of the longest runways in Asia, it is still used to day, with limited flights.
The best time to visit Angeles City is from January until April and November and December, when you will have a warm or hot temperature and limited mediocre rainfall.
The highest average temperature in Angeles City is 33°C in April and the lowest is 29°C in January. The weather and climate of Angeles City is suitable for a sun holiday.
City Has Grown
The town started out as a fun place for the service men to enjoy R & R and the nightlife. Over the years it has grown, and has now sprung up as an exciting city with a large number of excellent hotels, shopping malls and restaurants.
Nightlife is still very popular; however, another attraction now is the large number of excellent golf courses all within a short drive.
We have listed the courses that we think are the best of the bunch. Most offer an exciting day out, playing in some spectacular locations.
The majority are just a short drive from Angeles, however we have added a couple of gems that are a bit further away West towards the coast as well.
Enjoy your time in Angeles. You will not be disappointed!
Air Force City Golf Club
(Short course with a flat layout)
This par 72 18-hole course is located near the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport, around a 20 minutes’ drive North West from Angeles City. Air Force City is a relatively short course at 6,179 yards, and has a flat layout, with well-maintained Carabao grassed fairways and greens. Don’t be fooled, however, by their flat fairways, as they are known to be relatively unforgiving and slow.
Anvaya Cove Golf Club
Beautiful award-winning layout beside the coast
From the moment you set foot on Anvaya Cove Golf and Sports Club, you know it is something special. The land, the layout, the amenities - everything about it screams 5-star. Anvaya is a stunning golf course.
Beverly Place Golf Club
18-hole course designed by Gary Player
Beverly Place Golf Club, was built in the city of Mexico, about 25kms or 41 minutes’ drive from Angeles City.
The short 7,028 yard 18-hole course was designed by one of legends in golf, none other than Gary Player.
This public course started out with the back nine first, and then they added on the newer front nine.
Clark Sun Valley Golf & Country Club
(36 holes with fantastic elevations. Great fun)
This 36-hole Korean-owned golf course, Clark Sun Valley Golf and Country Club is a mere 27 minutes from Angeles City and is very close to the city. If you are coming from Manila, allow around two hours, but that will depend on the time of day.
This relatively new club has two good 18-hole golf courses.

(Top Robert Trent Jones Sr. Course)

Mimosa Plus Golf Course
(excellent Nelson & Hayworth redesign of the original American course)
Around 23 minutes from Angeles City, Mimosa is located in the shadow of Mount Pinatubo, close to the ex-American Clark Air Base in the Pampanga region. The Philippine country club is two-hours from Manila, making golf on the day of the drive over a good possibility.
Mimosa Plus Golf Course dates back its existence from the time of the Americans in the Philippines.
Pradera Verde Golf Club
Pradera Verde Golf Club is a golfer's paradise nestled in the scenic province of Pampanga, Philippines. This prestigious golf club offers an unparalleled golfing experience in a stunning natural setting.
Designed by renowned golf course architect, Robert Trent Jones Jr.
Royal Garden Golf & Country Club
This club also offers night play
Being just 6kms from Angeles city centre, the Royal Garden Golf and Country Club, has been a popular choice for people staying in this fun city.
Upon your arrival at this club, it becomes apparent what theme and country the designers based the golf course on, which strangely enough is Greece and the Romans. So, lots of sculptures and arches around their 18 holes.

Subic International Golf Club
Surrounded by a rainforest untouched for thousands of years
Subic has a long history, as the course opened in the 60s as a US military recreation facility, and has had several owners including Taiwan and Korean companies.
Then in 2016, Subic International Golf Club took over this 18-hole golf course, which came with over half a century of memorable history. It reopened in 2018 to become one of the best courses in the country.
