MONKEYTRAVEL SHIZUOKA GOLF COURSES

8 Golf Courses in Shizuoka

Use the courses across Mount Fuji (Shizuoka and Yamanashi), Gotemba and Izu to shape a trip around your base, number of rounds and the sightseeing or onsen time you want to keep. The first tee and the post-round journey can transform the day.

SHIZUOKA GOLF GUIDE

How to plan a Shizuoka golf trip

Gotemba is a little over an hour from Tokyo on the Tomei Expressway, and Mishima or Shizuoka about an hour by shinkansen. That makes it an easy extension of a Haneda itinerary or a Tokyo trip.

The Fuji-area courses divide between Gotemba in Shizuoka and the Fuji Five Lakes in Yamanashi, while Izu offers onsen-resort layouts. The two Fuji axes point in different directions, so decide which one you are visiting before planning.

The Fuji view is clearest in winter, though higher courses run cold and snow can limit operation. In summer cloud often hides the mountain, so the view is not something to count on.

Comparing a Japanese tee time on the headline green fee alone tends to produce a different number at the counter. Confirm whether cart, caddie or self play, lunch, locker and the local golf tax are included, then check rental clubs or shoes, minimum player counts, two-player supplements, payment method and whether overseas visitors can book. Clubs may also specify check-in times, dress codes and bathing etiquette, so submit player names accurately.

With two nights, pick one axis. Drive from Tokyo, play Gotemba, stay at an Izu or Gotemba onsen, play a Fuji-view course on day two, then finish with the outlet mall or sightseeing.

COURSE PLANNING

What to check before choosing a Shizuoka golf course

  • Real transfer time from your base

    Drive times differ across Mount Fuji (Shizuoka and Yamanashi), Gotemba and Izu. Work backwards from your first tee, and group courses in the same direction to cut daily driving.

  • What the green fee covers

    Check the product page for cart, caddie or self play, lunch, locker, local taxes and rental equipment in your chosen plan, and compare weekday against weekend rates.

  • Season and weather

    The Fuji view is clearest in winter, though higher courses run cold and snow can limit operation.

ITINERARY IDEAS

Shizuoka golf courses by area

  • Gotemba — closest to Tokyo

    PGM Gotemba Country Club and Gotemba Tomei Golf Club sit right off the Tomei Expressway, near the outlet mall and the Hakone direction.

  • North of Mount Fuji — Yamanashi and the Fuji Five Lakes

    Zuien Country Club Century Fuji Course and Narusawa Golf Club are in Yamanashi, not Shizuoka. Pair them with Fuji views and the Fuji Five Lakes, but check highland temperatures and winter operation.

  • The Izu peninsula — onsen and stay-and-play

    Shuzenji Country Club, Yugashima Golf Club & Hotel Resort and Izu Kokusai Country Club lie in the onsen belt, where hotel and round can be on one site.

  • Western Shizuoka — toward Hamamatsu

    Shizuoka Country Fukuroi Course lies west — worth a mid-trip round when heading toward Nagoya.
