Mumbai or Bombay as it was formerly known is the base to explore Western India. The pulse of the rapidly expanding Indian Economy can not be better experienced in any other place.

Golf in Mumbai is served at a premium and golfing at either of the 2 courses of distinction - (the Bombay Presidency Golf Club and Willingdon Golf Club) is generally not an option unless accompanying a member. But, if one drives towards Pune (a four hour drive from Mumbai), there are 2 fabulous choices along the way – Aamby Valley & Oxford. The Pune Golf Club is an interesting choice within Pune city. For those also visiting Gujarat, there are 2 new choices around Ahmedabad – the fabulous Nicklaus designed Kalhaar and Kensville.

Mumbai will always excite you and if you are not in the traffic you are guaranteed with a good time with the variety of food, people, culture and entertainment on offer. The Elephanta Caves are a pleasant boat ride away and are intriguing to say the least. Pune is where the local Maharashtra culture gets served at its best. Goa is a short hop from Mumbai and never ceases to be a favourite. Golf is simply the bonus.

BEST TIME TO GOLF IN MUMBAI & AROUND: India’s climate between October to March is unsurpassable with almost no rain, balmy days with low humidity and mild winters, making it one of the best places to travel and golf in during that period. Since India is a vast country, the temperatures do vary for each region based on seasons. Mumbai & the West is best visited in the winter months and this is the best time to golf in Mumbai as well. 

The summer season usually from April to June can get quite hot through out the country and it is not recommended to visit India at that time. The monsoon starts from June and continues till September. Mumbai experiences severe rains during the monsoon months and life can sometimes come to a standstill. However, the other regions in the West such as Pune or cities in Gujarat are not so severely affected.
