Fuerteventura, Canary Islands, Spain Travel Guide

With four 18-hole golf courses, Fuerteventura is a good choice for a golf break.  However, as mentioned elsewhere, in our view you are really looking at a “holiday with golf” rather than a true golf holiday.  But that’s not to say that travel to Fuerteventura for golf is not recommended – as it really is!

All 4 of the island’s golf courses are products of the golf course building boom in the late 1990’s and the first decade of the 21st century, so they are all fairly modern designs with the majority of their shaping being done by machine rather than naturally as is found at older golf courses around the world.

But, this has resulted in challenging layouts that really have to be given due consideration if you are to post a good score.  In fact, a round of golf at Playitas Golf Club – which is “only” a par 67 golf course – is actually a real challenge as players really have to give their full attention to where they plan on landing the golf ball!

Fuerteventura Golf Club and Salinas de Antigua Golf Club are located almost next to each other close to Caleta da Fuste and so share the same kind of look and feel.

Playitas Golf is to be found on the central east coast of Fuerteventura, with the final Fuerteventura golf course at Jandia Golf to be found in the far south of the island occupying a volcanic ravine running inland and uphill from the coast.

So, check out the details of Fuerteventura’s golf courses and be sure to get in touch with The Golf Travel People very soon to discuss your next golf holiday in Fuerteventura!

The range of hotels available to visitors to the smaller Canarian island of Fuerteventura is as extensive as any of the larger Canary Islands such as Tenerife and Gran Canaria.  This is due to the fact that the travel industry has really taken root here in Fuerteventura and the development of the golf travel sector has taken great advantage of the pre-existing general travel industry and hotel and resort products that were already well established in Fuerteventura when golf began it’s development here in the late 1990’s.

Most well-known Spanish and international hotel groups are represented somewhere in Fuerteventura with well known international brands such as Barcelo, Riu, Sheraton, Elba and many more offering excellent hotel accommodation in all the popular touristic areas of the island.

For visiting golfers this means that although there are only 2 “true” golf resorts at Playitas and the Elba Palace, there is a massive choice of further accommodation options to select the most suitable type, style and quality of hotel or apartment to suit your preferences.

With rural and rustic hotels, beach hotels and resorts, spacious apartments and villas and much, much more… Fuerteventura will be a golf holiday destination that is certain to have plenty to fulfil your requirements!
