Costa Del Sol Golf

A long-time favourite of Europeans, Spain’s Costa del Sol is home to one of the highest concentrations of world-class golf courses to be found anywhere in the world.

Located in the Andalucia region of Southern Spain, the Costa del Sol is often referred to as the Costa del Golf - ‘The Golf Coast’, offering no less than 60 courses within a small geographical area.

If linked together in a straight line, the courses would stretch from one end of the Costa to the other. However, these courses, designed by such famous names as Nicklaus, Ballesteros and Olazabal, zigzag from the beaches to the hills, through forests and over lakes.

Among the many fine courses to be found along this stretch of the Mediterranean coast is Valderrama, site of the 1997 Ryder Cup Matches, and San Roque, the winter home of the European PGA.
