CIAL Golf Club
Location: Kochi, India
CIAL Golf & Country Club, owned by Cochin International Airport Limited, is the only 18-hole championship golf course in Kerala, spread over 130 acres right next to Kochi Airport in Nedumbassery. Redesigned by Peter Thomson, the par-72, 7,430-yard links-style layout features five water hazards, strong winds, and India's first island green on the 18th hole, making accuracy essential across its narrow, tree-lined fairways. Open 365 days a year with a well-equipped clubhouse and golf academy, it's a popular stop for both serious golfers and travelers with a layover. Flying into or based in Kochi?
