Are you looking for that Golf vacation that is different from
everyone else ?
Have you considered Spain? Spain has long been a favorite Golf
destination for Europeans. The Andalucia region of Southern
Spain has one of the largest concentrations of Golf courses in
the country.
They call the area of Costa del Sol the Golf Coast. In this
small area there are over 60 World class Golf courses. Some of
the Worlds top course designers have left their mark in this
region.
Cutting out Golf courses from this breathtaking land has been
the names of the greats. Nicklaus, Ballesteros, and Olazabal
just to name a few.
They have run the holes through Forest and over lakes, through
the beaches and over rolling hillsides all to make your memories
so much more.
In this region on Spain you will find the winter home of the
European P.G.A and at Valderrama in 1997 they held the Ryder
Cup. Imagine the joy of playing on the same course that you
watched the tournaments on.
Alahurian Golf and Country Club offers a 18 hole course designed
by Severiano Ballesteros and features tight fairways with
challenging water holes.
Also among the amenities offered is a on-site hotel and fine
restaurants. Number of holes: 18 Total Yardage of 6806.
Campo de Cordoba is a 18 hole course in a Parkland setting. With
its tree lined fairways, eleven doglegs and four holes with
their greens boarded by lakes it demands your best game.
Campo de Cordoba is one of the most inland of the courses in the
region. It is located in the Serrania de Cordoba Hills and comes
complete with birds and other types of wildlife.
If you like water all along your course, then you will love Golf
de Puerto. This 18-hole course was designed by Pro Player Manuel
Pinero to challenge the most avid of players.
Nine lakes linked together by streams add the variety and
complexity that you would expect on your Golf vacation. Also of
note is the Andalucian A.P.G has and will be hosting a variety
of tournaments here. Number of holes 18, Total Yardage of 6314
The next Golf Club to look at has a unique approach to it.
Drawing on the Spaniard sport of Bull Fighting, this club has
named each of the eighteen holes after a famous bullfighter.
And if you have names as tough as a bullfighter then you would
want your course to be tough as well. Olive trees and water
hazards surround many of the greens.
If you want to beat Par on a tough course, here it is. Number of
holes 18, Total Yardage of 6532
Remember that thorough research into the courses will make your
trip more pleasant. If you are an avid Golfer but long, narrow
fairways do not help your game and you choose to play at courses
that are designed this way, it could hinder your enjoyment of
the trip.
Consult a Golf Vacation specialist, someone who knows the Clubs
and understands your game. Also do not overlook the beauty of
Spain, the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the Bull
fighting arenas.
Sample the food, the dance and the culture in general. Enjoying
all of these things will round out your vacation, and fill the
19th hole with stories for years to come.
