We are proud to share that TPC Danzante Bay has been named Latin America’s Best Golf Course 2026 by the World Golf Awards.
This is the fourth time the course has received this regional honor, placing TPC Danzante Bay once again among the most highly regarded golf experiences in Latin America.
The World Golf Awards are determined through votes from golf industry professionals, members of the media and golfers from around the world. For our team, this recognition carries particular meaning because it reflects both the character of the course and the experience players have when they travel to Loreto to play it.
A Win Among Latin America’s Leading Golf Courses
TPC Danzante Bay was selected from a field of 14 nominees representing 11 countries. The other courses in the category were Asuncion Golf Club in Paraguay; Barquisimeto Golf Club in Venezuela; Carmelo Golf Club in Uruguay; Chapelco Golf Club and Termas de Rio Hondo Golf Club in Argentina; Club de Golf Panamá in Panama; Hacienda Chicureo in Chile; Iguassu Falls Golf Club and Terravista Golf Course in Brazil; Pueblo Viejo Country Club in Colombia; Reserva Conchal Golf Club in Costa Rica; San Isidro in Peru; and Solmar Golf Links in Mexico.
That range of destinations gives this fourth win added weight. TPC Danzante Bay earned the recognition alongside established golf names from across Latin America, each offering its own landscape, design and playing tradition.
A Fourth Win Built Over Time
Receiving this award once is meaningful. Earning it for the fourth time speaks to something deeper: the consistency of the course, the work of the team that cares for it and the golfers who continue to make TPC Danzante Bay part of their travels.
Every round depends on many people. The grounds team prepares the course each morning. The golf staff welcomes players, helps them select the right tees and makes sure each group is ready for the day ahead. Behind the scenes, many others contribute to the experience long before a golfer reaches the first tee.
This recognition belongs to all of them. It also belongs to the players who have supported the course, shared their experiences and voted for TPC Danzante Bay.
A Golf Course Shaped by Loreto
TPC Danzante Bay is Mexico’s only TPC golf course. Designed by Rees Jones, the 18-hole, par-72 layout plays from 4,916 to 7,237 yards, with five sets of tees. The round moves through valleys, desert terrain and arroyos before climbing toward elevated areas with views of the Sea of Cortez, Danzante Bay and the Sierra de la Giganta. Wind and elevation add another layer to the experience, often influencing club selection and strategy.
The course’s most recognized moment arrives at Hole 17. The signature par 3 plays from an elevated tee toward a green set on a rocky peninsula above the Sea of Cortez. It may be the view golfers know before arriving, but it is only one part of a course that reveals the landscape gradually, with changing scenery and a different style of play throughout the round.
Being named Latin America’s Best Golf Course brings attention not only to TPC Danzante Bay, but also to Loreto as a golf destination. Here, a round can become part of a longer getaway that includes island excursions, fishing, whale watching, spa time and days beside the Sea of Cortez.
We are grateful to the World Golf Awards, the golf community and everyone who voted. Most of all, we thank every golfer who has played the course and become part of its story.
