The resort is known for its impressive 54 holes of championship golf set within the peaceful Sonora desert. It is now expanding its golf horizon to offer lessons for all levels of golfers.

Laguna Beach, California, known as an iconic surfing town, is the birthplace of surfing legend Mike Parsons and home to surfing pro Hans Hagen. Montage Laguna Beach is nested on a cliff top overlooking the iconic town and offering fun experiences for guests. Through Montage’s Adventure IO Partnership, guests learn how to ride e-Foils with professional surfer Chuck Glynn, an experience best described as a mix between surfing, flying and snowboarding!

 

Another Montage property offers the chance for guests to learn how to fly-fish. Montage Deer Valley is settled in a sportsman’s paradise known for its world-renowned blue-ribbon fly-fishing along the Provo, Green and Weber rivers. Through the partnership with Adventure IO, guests can arrange for an all-inclusive, guided fly-fishing experience with the help of expert guide Joe Mitchell.

 

Guests at Montage Palmetto Bluff in Bluffton, South Carolina, can learn the art of bird-watching. Resident naturalist Brian Byrne helps guests find greater connection with the surrounding natural environment.
