Club De Campo Del Mediterráneo
Club De Golf Costa Azahar
This is a simple golf course, but a charming one too. The fact
that it is less than 50 metres from the sea in abundant clusters
of pines means that it is a course for players who prefer to test
their technique rather then their distance. The layout is lined with
well-established pines that give a very picturesque image to this
club. These idyllic surroundings are only 6 kilometres from the
centre of Castellon de la Plana and 12 from the coastal resort of
Benicassim. Players can enjoy a course that features more nature
than man-made components. During a round you can enjoy both
the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea and breathe in the pinefilled scent. When you reach the greens, it becomes obvious that
they are not as large as they seem, so the approach has to be precise.
Club De Campo Del Mediterráneo
This is a benchmark course in Valencian golf. It has achieved
international fame as it is the place where Sergio Garcia, one
of the finest players in the World began his training. Amateurs
visiting this course may even have the chance to coincide
with one of Sergio Garcia’s training sessions, which is another
attraction offered by this club. In the professional category it has
been chosen for the Castello Masters, the OKI Castellon Open
de Espana Senior Tour, the Ladies European Tour and four Tours,
which serves as the ‘final course’ for Spanish golf. The course was
substantially remodelled to host the Castello Masters Costa
Azahar 2008, a European Tour event by Sergio Garcia.
Panorámica Golf & Country Club
German Professional Bernhard Langer won the Augusta Masters
in 1985 and 1993. During this high point in his sporting career, he
flew over the 80 hectares of terrain where he would later design
the Panoramica golf course. 70 bunkers accompany players along
the 18 holes from tee-ground to final green. The lakes are also
combined with both wide and narrow fairways. It is a course
designed for all types of players regardless of their handicap.
But, there are same demanding holes. For example, the 5th, a par
3 at 133 metres, with an island green where the water will frighten
away the indecisive players and rewards the brave. Also of note is
the 11th, a par 5 at 502 metres. Along the last 200 metres before
the green, the entire left-hand is guarded by a lake. Panoramica
Golf, like Foressos Golf in Picassent, Valencia, is one of the
courses that belong to Aymerich Golf Management, a leading
group in course management across Europe with over forty clubs
throughout Spain.
The lakes are also combined with
