The Costa del Sol is the golfers’ paradise. The region, also known as the Costa del Golf, from Málaga to Sotogrande has become one of the biggest and most attractive areas for golf in the last decade.
With more than 70 golf courses, this area offers for the biggest concentration of golf courses in the world! In the area of Marbella alone, there are 20 courses. It’s not surprising that the coast is the European Golf Capital of the World.
The facilities are of the highest possible standard with a wide variety of course styles from classic and traditional such as Mijas Golf to dramatic and hilly such as La Cala (3x 18 holes) or bedded in pure nature at La Quinta Golf. The Costa del Golf offers a wide range of course for all tastes and all skills. There are courses for beginners and wonderful and competitive links courses, where the golfer can play right next to the sea.
At numerous driving ranges and golf schools with excellent pros, golf beginners can pick up this challenging sport or improve their technique in the warm weather of Andalucia. It’s no surprise that so many golfers each year choose the Costa del Sol as their holiday destination or even better as their permanent residence.
At any time of the year, famous golf celebrities such as Sergio Garcia, Rafael Cabrera-Bello or Miguel Angel Jimenez can be found at the golf clubs or relaxing in one of the fine club restaurants, which are able to satisfy the most discerning tastes of clients.
As spring and autumn are the high season of this prestigious golf Eldorado here at the Costa del Sol, it is advisable to reserve tee times well in advance. This is particularly important during the high seasons of mid February to the end of April and October to December. Excellent golf on quieter courses with attractive green fee offers can be found during the hotter summer months. For your convenience, take a buggy and plenty of water and you will have no problem to enjoy a pleasant round of golf. Especially during the summer months clubs like Real Las Brisas, Aloha or Real Guadalmina Golf, which are normally “members only”, offer some tee times for guests.
