Buenavista Golf Course
Buenavista was designed by Severiano Ballesteros himself, its back nine running along Atlantic cliffs so closely that five greens feel aimed straight at the ocean — earning it the nickname the ''European Pebble Beach''. Book this one for one of Tenerife's most dramatic rounds, with a five-star Meliá resort on site and genuine precision demanded at the 15th and 17th. ...
Anfi Tauro Golf Course
Anfi Tauro is Gran Canaria's Arizona-style desert course, carved out of three million cubic metres of volcanic rock by von Hagge, Smelek and Baril, with craggy outcrops, waste areas and three lakes shaping every hole. Book this one for a genuinely different test on the island, with Spanish PGA Championship pedigree and standout holes at the 6th and 13th — just note a buggy is required and comes at extra cost. ...
Las Américas Golf Course
Las Américas sits in the heart of Playa de las Américas, its wind-sheltered amphitheatre layout hiding real history — the remains of aboriginal Guanche dwellings sit beside the 2nd hole — and a track record hosting the Tenerife Open de España Femenino. Book this one for an easy-walking round right in the resort action, with a golf school and video swing analysis on hand if you want to work on your game beforehand. ...
Real Club de Golf Las Palmas
Real Club de Golf Las Palmas is Spain's oldest golf club, founded in 1891 and rebuilt at the rim of the Bandama volcanic crater in 1957 by Mackenzie Ross — one of the club's own founding members, decades earlier. Book this one for a short, technical, history-steeped round through narrow, ravine-lined fairways, with an on-site boutique hotel if you want to stay the night. ...
Costa Adeje Championship Golf Course
Costa Adeje is built from an old banana plantation, its original stone terrace walls restored into a José Gancedo-designed course that's hosted European Tour events and once welcomed Severiano Ballesteros for the Spanish Open. Book this one for a genuinely storied round five kilometres from Playa de las Américas, with sea views to La Gomera and a shorter Los Lagos nine for an easier afternoon. ...
Maspalomas Golf Course
Maspalomas opened in 1968, designed by Mackenzie Ross, and is generally considered Spain's first tourist golf course — flat, wide-open, and forgiving, with the Atlantic trade winds doing most of the defending. Book this one for an easy, well-maintained round that suits beginners and high handicappers especially well, right beside the Maspalomas dunes. ...
Lanzarote Golf Course
Lanzarote Golf Course opened in 2008, designed by Ron Kirby — the same architect behind Salobre and Meloneras in Gran Canaria — with wide fairways, big greens and the island's volcanic stone walls built right into the layout. Book this one for a modern, all-handicap round on higher ground between Puerto del Carmen and Tías, with views out to Fuerteventura and Isla de Lobos. ...
Salobre Golf Old Course
One of Gran Canaria's oldest and most characterful layouts, Salobre Old winds through volcanic lava outcrops and black sand waste areas to a string of demanding par 3s, none tougher than the stone-ringed 11th. Book this one if you want a proper desert-golf test with history behind it, from a Spanish PGA Championship host that's still sharpening itself through an ongoing bunker and tee renovation. ...
Abama Golf Course
Abama was designed by Dave Thomas and opened in 2005 with Bill Clinton in the inaugural round, climbing 315 metres up the west face of Mount Teide for views across the Atlantic to La Gomera. Book this one for a genuinely decorated round — a 2024 World Golf Awards nominee with 22 lakes, 25,000 palms, and greens fast enough to test any handicap. ...
Meloneras Golf Course
Ron Kirby's clifftop back nine, where the greens from the 13th to the 16th run close enough to the Atlantic to feel part of it, makes Meloneras one of Gran Canaria's most photographed rounds. Add a gentle front nine, four tees per hole and consistently praised conditioning, and this is the one to book if you want a coastal test that still welcomes every handicap. ...
Amarilla Golf & Country Club
Amarilla's par-3 5th is one of the Canary Islands' great tee shots, a full carry over a rocky Atlantic inlet to a green perched on the far side. Book this one for the coastal drama and Mount Teide backdrop, then settle in for a technical back nine that rewards accuracy over power. ...
Tecina La Gomera Golf Course
Tecina drops over 500 feet from its clifftop 1st tee to the 18th green, the only golf course on La Gomera and one of the most dramatic settings in the Canaries, with the Atlantic and Mount Teide in view on almost every hole. Book this one if you want a genuinely different day out: the par-4 10th, with its cliff-edge tee and ravine-split fairway, is worth the ferry crossing on its own. ...
