La Duquesa Golf & Country Club, Malaga Golf Courses

La Duquesa

Designed by Robert Trent Jones Snr, La Duquesa winds round the local scenery with magnificent views over the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and to Africa. The demanding course requires accurate driving and concentration. Some of the fairways can be a little tight and you will have to resist the temptation of a driver and choose a long iron instead. The par 3s will live long in the memory, particularly the 17th as there is a drop of some 20 metres to the green that is only 109 yards away. Another factor is the breeze hat can make playing that little bit more difficult although it can be very refreshing in the warmer months
