Welcome
Welcome to Destination Golf
Spain 2017/2018
Destination Golf Spain was launched to provide an essential guide
to golf in Spain. Across the following pages, we hope to educate you
about where to play, where to stay and where to find the best deals.
Over 1.4 million Irish people travel to Spain each year. It has
long been a favourite for the Irish tourist due to its proximity,
accessibility, culture, and of course its climate – with record
numbers logged for 2016. For the travelling golfer, there is a vast
assortment of choice; Award winning Championship courses,
Friendly ‘pay and play’ courses, Leisurely resort courses or why
not go off the beaten track to find that hidden gem. There’s also
a diverse choice of golf destinations – all along the Southern trip
from Murica to Cadiz, up the east Coast from Almeria to Girona, or
any of the Canary or Balearic Islands.
Spain is a fantastic country that is rich in history, passionate
about its culture, spoilt with scenery, dedicated to tourism and
fanatic about gastronomy. The contrasts in its terrain provides an
astonishing range of cuisine and dynamic wine options, which have
become more common place in the Irish market, as Mediterranean
cuisine has rapidly grown in popularity.
Across the last six years Destination Golf representatives has visited
all of the major golf destinations in Spain with their clubs in tow.
In this publication we will provide a short review of every course in
these major golf destinations, uniquely coded by their region, but
it’s our “Editors Choice” recommendations that deserve your best
attention.
I hope you enjoy Spain and all that it has to offer.d all that it has to
offer.
