This one is to be the pick of all golf courses in Alicante. It’s relatively young since it was opened in 2002 but it is already developed enough to test the best golfers while still having high playability for the beginners. The course is real long and there is plenty of water, so make sure you bring a good supply of golf balls. There are lakes, natural running waters, and wildlife all around, add to this the backdrop of the Mount Escotera.
The natural setting not only provides majestic views of lakes, trees, and mountains but it also challenges and makes the game more exciting and you have to hit a ball on an island green on the fifth.
