DESTINATION GOLF SPAIN 2022 / 23
Welcome to Destination Golf Spain 2022 / 2023
Destination Golf was launched to provide an essential guide to golf in Spain , which we will update every Spring , providing the golf traveller with the most up to date information .
With so many great options available for a travelling golfer , it can often be difficult to finalise a golfing itinerary , so our team of representatives have visited all of the major regions with their clubs in tow and created a Top100 list which we recommend for 2022 & 2023 .
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 – it ’ s no surprise that record visitor numbers were recorded in 2017 . 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 tip from Murica to Cadiz , up the east Coast from Almeria to Girona , or any of the Canary or Balearic Islands . Madrid has also emerged as a new golf destination option .
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 .
I hope you enjoy Spain and all that it has to offer .
