Golf Almerimar
Cadiz » Rota
The Rota Club de Golf initiative was started by a group of friends
in 2006, who wanted to have a non-profit club to practise and
enjoy the game they love. It’s a friendly club that runs small
member and social events in accordance with the rules of the
Royal Spanish Golf Federation. Located in Rota Naval Base, this
unique golf course is one of the oldest and most authentic in
Cadiz. Its 18 holes is known for having an abrupt terrain, with slow
greens and firm fairways.
Cadiz » Campano
The nine holes of Campano are regarded as a fine test of golf by
many who have graced the narrow, flat fairways, which wander
through the private estate of San Andrés. There is little rough but
an abundance of pine and olive trees provide shade and natural
hazard. The other being the Levante wind. The long 2nd hole
demands accuracy in the face of this difficulty as one must cross
a stream and negotiate a right - hand dogleg. The club also has an
excellent driving range.

Almerimar is considered one of the best golf courses in Spain.
It is a Japanese owned complex which forms part of a resort
development that boasts its own marina, hotel, apartments and
other sporting facilities. Aiming to transform it into one of the most
spectacular tourist resorts in Europe the owners are well on their
way to fulfilling this pledge. From the drawing board of Gary Player
the course offers wide fairways and large fast greens protected by
a profusion of trees and plants that offer welcome shade in the
hotter months. Well positioned sand traps and water feature at five
holes, whilst one of the most challenging holes is the short 12th
where the green is marooned in the centre of a lake giving a teeshort over 100 metres of water. Fourteen kilometres from Roquetas
de Mar, Almerimar is an oasis between sea and mountains.
