Velas Vallarta in Puerto Vallarta is known for its green gardens, beachfront settings and family-friendly activities, but the resort goes above and beyond this summer with a new experience for little travelers looking to hit the greens with their dads. Whether discovering a new talent or simply looking for a unique experience, My First Golf Experience has it all.

 

My First Golf Experience is a new specialty activity designed to introduce young golfers to the fundamentals in a fun, safe and engaging environment. Kids will join a professional instructor at next-door Marina Vallarta Golf Course to learn techniques, coordination and sportsmanship. The experience is perfect for beginners, helping kids build confidence and encourage movement all while having fun and making that first swing one of a kind.

My First Golf Experience is available as an additional activity for resort guests at a rate of $180 per child. The program is designed for children aged 6–15 years old and features a one-hour golf clinic tailored to young beginners. The experience includes everything young golfers need to get started, including access to the golf course at Marina Vallarta, professional instruction and all necessary golf equipment. Each participant also receives a welcome kit with a backpack, t-shirt and hat.
