| DESCRIPTION |
La
Manga Club is surely one of Europe's finest golfing
destinations with 3 championship courses, each offering
its own distinctive style and terrain. First
class practice facilities, which include a renowned
golf academy, 80 bay driving range, chipping and putting
greens, as well as an 18 hole par 47 pitch and putt
course.
|
|
| SOUTH COURSE |
Designed
by Robert D. Putman and remodelled by Arnold Palmer,
this long classic championship course has played host
to five Spanish Opens and many other prestigious tournaments.
The wide, palm-fringed fairways present few hidden
dangers but the numerous, strategically-placed water
hazards and bunkers will punish wayward shots.

| NORTH COURSE |
| Also
designed by Putman, the North has just undergone complete
refurbishment, which, amongst other improvements,
has created more interesting greens with much more
movement. More undulating than the South, the North
offers a different, yet no less challenging round
of golf. Relying on precision rather than length,
an added challenge is provided by the barrancas or
storm gullies that snake their way through the course.
18
holes, Par 71

5.780 metres, SSS 70

| |
| WEST COURSE |
| |
| This
Dave Thomas designed course is set amid pine woodlands
and presents frequent changes in elevation. This is
a deceiving course that demands the occasional blind
shot, where a tight front 9 contrasts with a more
open, but nonetheless challenging back 9.
