The Costa del Sol is better known as the "Costa del Golf" around these parts, which you can see and hear everywhere when you arrive at the coast.

Golf is the sport par excellence on the Costa del sol, where three main ingredients are mixed to create the perfect setting for this sport: the climate, the sun and quality of light and the excellent installations. There are in total 39 golf courses. As already mentioned before, not for nothing turned the name of Costa del Sol by golf lovers into la Costa del Golf.

“Costa del Sol, Costa del Golf” is a refrain you’ll see and hear constantly when you come to the coast. The area is one of the world’s golf meccas for good reason: There are now 43 golf courses over the main 60-mile stretch between San Roque and Málaga! Yes, that’s rapidly approaching an average of one course per mile…

Add to this the region’s amazingly good weather statistics, mild winds, and long days and you get a golfer’s paradise. Whatever your budget, playing style, and the town you have chosen for your holiday, you won’t have to travel far for a variety of extremely playable courses.
