The Costa del Sol also known as Costa del Golf is famous throughout Europe for its beautiful golf courses. With over 50 courses in the area and an average of 320 days of sunshine a year, it is the best place for anyone who wants to enjoy the game all year round.
Many of the fields have beautiful views of the sea and the mountains, and some wind between hills or olive groves. They also vary in terms of difficulty level. Both experienced players and those new to the sport will find something to suit them.
Best exercise facilities
One of the best practice facilities in the area is the PG Golf and Sports Academy belonging to the Atalaya course, offering a driving range equipped with a Trackman system so that every golfer can know their distances on mobile devices or built-in screens. The facility has a large putting green of very good quality and a chipping green. The academy employs a number of coaches who speak a variety of languages, including English, Spanish, Slovak, Polish and Russian.
Another interesting place to practice is the Azata golf course, which has a good quality driving range where players can practice from the grass, which is a great advantage.
Where to play?
The best golf courses in the area can be divided into two groups. The first are locations ideal for a daily round on courses presenting the best value for money. This group includes Valle Romano, Los Flamingos, Los Arqueros and Calanova Golf Club.
In the second group are courses that are a dream come true for all golfers. These include The Real Club de Golf Sotogrande, San Roque Old Course, Finca Cortesin and the most recognisable Real Club Valderrama. The Valderrama Club has hosted such prestigious professional tournaments as the Ryder Cup and the Volvo Masters.
