Golf is probably Real Golf La Manga Club’s most famous attraction and the 3 championship golf courses here are among the very best in Europe and have all hosted many professional and amateur tournaments over the years. With the 3 courses, the maintenance of all 3 is excellent as it allows the management to close each course entirely for extended periods to allow for the best quality work to take place with extended periods of recovery as required.
One of the main features of the Real Golf La Manga Club North course is the tightness of some of the fairways off the tee, plus the length of some of the holes – especially numbers 5 & 6 – which makes the course a challenge for players of all abilities.
However, the putting greens on the Real Golf La Manga Club North course are larger than those found on the other 2 courses at the resort, so although increased accuracy off the tee is required, if you do manage to find the fairway or a good angle of approach to the green then it should be easier to get onto the dancefloor! But of course, just getting onto the green must be balanced against being in 3-putt territory miles from the pin, so don’t be surprised if you hit some of the greens in regulation and unfortunately still walk away with a bogey (or worse) on your card.
Some variation of the North Course layout is sometimes possible with the 17th hole having a couple of routing options depending on the season and maintenance with both par-3 and par-4 options in play at certain times.
La Manga Club is definitely a must-play if you are in this corner of south-eastern Spain and should always be included on a golf holiday in Murcia.
