Tenerife, Spain

international golf central The Canary Islands –TENERIFE

Tenerife is known to have some of the best golf courses in all the Canary Islands, nine of them servicing players all year-round. Golfers will find the perfect combination of good weather, beautiful landscapes, and championship golf, including the World Corporate Golf Challenge Finale coming soon on October 17-21. The World Corporate Golf Challenge represents one of the largest corporate golf tournaments in the world. Players and guests from over 30 countries will be able to enjoy the hospitality that the island of Tenerife has to offer.

The official WCGC World Final competition will be held at Golf Costa Adeje and the Sports Legends Cup will be played at Abama Golf, two superb courses that illustrate the excellent quality of golf in Tenerife and will undoubtedly contribute to the success of the event.

Golf Costa Adeje

As implied by the name, this golf club is situated in Adeje, a wonderful city with some excellent dining options. The very first 18 holes, now referred to as The Old Course, were first opened for play in 1998. Since then, an additional 9 holes have been added known as Los Lagos. Both courses feature generous fairways, but the focus is largely on precise approach play and the short game. The courses are in excellent shape for the majority of the year, which makes putting enjoyable. The difficulty is largely provided by elevation changes and sweeping undulations, as well as a few gorges and lakes. Only on this course will you be accompanied by banana plantations overlooking the beautiful sea views and La Gomera Island in the distance. The Costa Adeje course has excellent conditions, and the greens are challenging. Remember that the island is frequently windy, so you may want to bring 1-2 extra clubs or fewer, depending on the wind’s direction. Unquestionably a highly suggested course to play, and reasonably priced. Number of holes: 27

Abama Golf

One of the best courses to have been created in Europe and is regarded by many as the best in the Canary Islands. It offers vistas over the island of La Gomera and out into the immense blue of the Atlantic Ocean. Golfers of all skill levels will enjoy the challenge provided by the course’s 25,000 palm trees, no less than 22 lakes, dramatic elevation changes, and strategically placed bunkers that protect expansive putting areas. Following your round, treat yourself to a meal prepared by a Michelin-starred chef at the clubhouse while taking in the sunset. Number of holes: 18

Buenavista Golf

One of Tenerife’s most gorgeous golf courses, with holes built on cliff tops with views of the Atlantic Ocean and the majestic Teno mountain range. It is located in the northwestern region of the island. The total difficulty is increased by the

spacious fairways, stunning scenery, and numerous holes that tilt close to the cliff’s edge. Compared to other courses on the island, Buenavista may be a little off the usual route, but the trip to the north-west is tremendously enjoyable and well worth the effort. Number of holes: 18

More About Tenerife and its Golf Sector

Tenerife’s golf industry has progressively increased in status and repute. The Tenerife Open, a professional men’s European Golf Tour event, and the men’s and women’s Spanish Open are only two examples of the regular European championships and tournaments that are now contested here. These tournaments attract a lot of talent from Spain and internationally.

It’s no wonder that Tenerife is a favorite among golfers looking for sun because the Canary Islands, which are located in the south, have a remarkable annual climate of 23º, so you can visit the island at any time to enjoy the best conditions for enjoying your favorite sport. Now, major low-cost airlines are flying to this sun-kissed island, making the getaway much more appealing. Courses designed by leading figures in the sport – such as Donald Steel, John Jacobs and Severiano Ballesteros – can be found within a few kilometers of each other, which are joined by El Tecina on the neighboring island of La Gomera. Strokes that appear to be aimed at the Atlantic Ocean, cliffs that surround the courses, excursions to nearby islands, and occasionally even the Mount Teide volcano appear as part of an outstanding natural backdrop. All these features combine to create a special golfing experience unlike anything else available in Europe. You can select among golf courses with breathtaking sea views that are located on the coast and encircled by cliffs and coves, or mountain golf courses that are 700 meters above sea level, all while taking advantage of excellent accommodations that meet the highest levels of international standards.
