Golf 

Oaxaca's one local course, Club de Golf Vista Hermosa is really located in the pleasant hillside community of  San Agustín Etla about 25 minutes north of Oaxaca.  This is a 9 hole, course, which you play twice for your 18 holes and is laid out among some hills and and valleys and should not be considered really challenging.  Don't plan on driving to Club de Golf Vista Hermosa as this course is next to impossible to find.  Take a taxi. 

If you want to play a championship course you will have to travel to Huatulco, on the Oaxacan coast.  The jungle like setting of the The Tangolunda Golf Course (18 Holes, Par 72) sets this course apart from most others.  The Tangolunda Golf Course which was designed by Mario Schjetnan Dantan, is a really beautiful course with one green right on the tranquil Tangolunda bay.  This course also has a nice clubhouse and restaurant and some very nice tennis courts.  Green fees are very reasonable at both courses.   

Tennis

The warm days and cool nights, that prevail most of the year, are an open invitation to go out and play some tennis.  In the summer you will probably want to play only in the early morning or late evenings.  A couple of private facilities make up the options for tennis in Oaxaca.  Both are located a short distance from the center of town (approx 20 minutes).  Club de Tennis Brenamiel offers 9 courts in a country setting and has a swimming pool to cool off after your hard fought matches.  Deportivo Oaxaca has 7 courts, in a gymnasium atmosphere but also has a pool and sauna.  The Club de Golf Vista Hermosa is another option with nice facilities, but is difficult to find. 

The hotels with tennis courts do not permit non guests to play on their courts.  If a Hotel with tennis courts is a must, you have three choices in Oaxaca the Misión de Los Angeles, Hacienda Los Laureles or the Hotel Victoria.   Call ahead for pricing and availability of courts and remember not all of the facilities will always have English speaking personnel.   

In Huatulco the Tangolunda Golf Course, has very nice tennis facilities, which are open to the public.
