This course, with its characteristic Nicklaus design, is in the American style with wide fairways and exquisitely shaped greens, and is 6,576 metres long. The views of the Mediterranean and Finestrat mountain range are fantastic.

2.  Alicante Golf

Situated at Playa de San Juan, very near to Alicante, this modern, balanced course and was designed by Severiano Ballesteros.

The course has a par of 72, with six par-3s, six par-4s and six par-5s. The main feature of the course is the vast abundance of water, which makes for quite a tricky round.

The course is flat, not particularly strenuous and you can see the green on all of the holes. It has two unusual features: the first is the lake in the shape of an S (the initial of the designer) surrounding the green on the 9th; the second is the Roman ruins next to the 14th which the player has to clear to reach the green.

3. Bonalba

Situated very near to Alicante, and right next to the Playa de San Juan, the course offers sensational views of the sea and a perfect climate to enjoy a game at any time of year.

With 18 holes and a par of 72, this is an excellent course built on gentle ridges, with wide fairways, undulating greens and strategically located lakes.

The complicated design makes Bonalba an interesting and fun challenge for the golfer and the variety in the holes means there is never a dull moment.

The vegetation is typically Mediterranean and there are plenty of palms and pine trees.

4.  El Plantio

Situated close to the Airport, 3 kilometres from the city of Alicante, this is an urban course. It has one round of 18 holes and another one of 9, which makes it great for all players.

The 18-hole round has a par of 72, the 9-holer is made up of par-3’s and there is another 18-hole course in the pipeline.

The course is liberally covered with vegetation and the quality of the design and the excellent condition of the greens and fairways really stand out. The rounds are suitable to the requirements and level of all players and so it is a fantastic place for all the family.
