Handicap: 28 men/36 ladies

Estepona Golf
Handicap: 28 men/36 ladies
Estepona Golf is a "pay and play" course offering a magnificent natural setting and a course not without difficulties providing for an enjoyable game. Nevertheless, the fairways are wide and the greens are large, so the secret is probably not to be too ambitious. The design fits in with the natural environment of the Sierra Bermeja in the background and the sea can be seen from most holes. The fairway on the 3rd hole falls down sharply with the green despairingly out of reach but do not lose heart. The 7th hole, a par 4 with a raised tee, offers the bold the chance to reach the green, situated 250 metres away. It is a hole which falls away to the left with water on both sides of the green. Each hole represents a new challenge, as should be the case with any course.

La Cañada Golf
Handicap: 28 men/36 ladies
This is the story of a town which wanted a golf course. When they had one they asked for another and then another. Guadiaro used to send its men to the courses in Sotogrande. In this way, they became green keepers and built the golf course. There were far more golfers in Guadiaro than in any another town of its size in Spain. They cut out a mountain track and the boys practiced near the football pitch. Jaime Ortiz Patino took an interest in them, the Town Hall provided the land, Robert Trent Jones took responsibility for the design and La Cañada began to take shape. Ten years later, thanks to economic aid from the "first tee" programme and Jaime Ortiz Patino, the second nine holes course was opened, on this occasion designed by Dave Thomas. A great municipal course.
