Experience golf on volcanoes and coastal scenes

Gran Canaria boasts some of the best golf in all the Canary Islands with courses such as Real Club de Golf de Las Palmas and the unreal Anfi Tauro Golf, considered by many as the top course on the island. With designs constructed in an extinct volcano's crater and undulating fairways, the courses on the island offer picturesque views like no other.

Salobre Hotel & Resort is an absolute gem with two superb on-site courses, both carved out of the volcanic rock that has formed to create the island. Salobre has quickly become a popular destination for golfers who want everything under one roof when on a golf holiday in Gran Canaria.

Play the New Course, known as ‘The Beast’, if you fancy challenging your game with undulating fairways and large areas of wasteland that await errant tee shots. Alternatively, play the Old Course, known as ‘The Beauty’, a more forgiving track with wider fairways and fairer greens, however, both act as a green oasis amongst the black volcanic soil.

Meloneras Golf Club offers a change of scenery as it runs along the coastline for many of the holes and uses the natural terrain to form the fairways and greens. Maintained to absolute perfection you won’t find a bad lie in the fairway or the rough as you play down palm tree-lined fairways. There are no real hidden tricks to this course making it fun for all abilities and a chance to take in the stunning views of Gran Canaria.

Enjoy a sun-kissed golf holiday destination

Gran Canaria is quickly becoming the go-to place for a hot climate golf holiday, and it’s little wonder. Known for its picturesque golf courses, lavish hotels and stunning landscapes, it has all the ingredients for a relaxing getaway. The superb temperate year-round climate means Gran Canaria is the ideal destination in off-peak seasons.

From surfing, hiking and other outdoor activities, to enjoying sumptuous cuisine and relaxing at a bar, there is something to suit every golfer here.

Throw in the relaxing atmosphere, beautiful beaches, and cosmopolitan nightlife and you are quick to understand why so many tourists flock to the island.

Some top attractions include Playa del Ingles beach with its resorts, little shops, and the iconic rock Roque Nublo.
