James's Tips for Golfers

  • 01 Stay in the south of Tenerife (Costa Adeje area) for the best course access and reliable sunshine
  • 02 Lanzarote has fewer courses but they're very good — less visited than Tenerife which means fast play
  • 03 Hire a car: the courses are spread out and taxis add up quickly
  • 04 Many all-inclusive hotels in Tenerife don't include golf — check exactly what's included before booking
  • 05 January and February are the UK's school term time — courses are notably quieter mid-week

Must-Play Courses

Abama Golf, Tenerife

18 holes · Par 72 · Dave Thomas design. Ocean views from nearly every hole. Challenging.

Golf Costa Adeje, Tenerife

27 holes · Par 72 · 27 holes. Consistent quality, excellent practice facilities.

Centro Comercial Lanzarote Golf

18 holes · Par 72 · Volcanic landscape — visually extraordinary.

Real Club de Golf de Las Palmas

18 holes · Par 71 · Oldest golf club in Spain (1891). Historic and excellent.

For Non-Golfers

The Canaries are one of Europe's great multi-activity destinations: whale watching, surfing, hiking the Teide volcano, excellent beaches, water parks for families. Every major island has a high-street shopping zone and a good restaurant scene. Ideal for mixed groups.

James's Shortlist

Courses worth the journey.

Golf Buenavista del Norte

★★★★★

Severiano Ballesteros · from £85

Buenavista del Norte is the Canary Islands course that I recommend most enthusiastically, and nobody outside of serious golf circles has ever heard of it. Seve Ballesteros designed it on the northwest coast of Tenerife with the Atlantic Ocean as the boundary on three sides and the Teno massif rising behind it. The result is a course of extraordinary scenic quality that also happens to be a very good golf course.

Hidden gemValueCanaries circuit

Anfi Tauro Golf

★★★★

Robert Trent Jones Sr · from £110

Anfi Tauro is the Canary Islands course I recommend most enthusiastically to clients who have only been to Tenerife. The Robert Trent Jones Sr design from 1998 sits in a dramatic ravine on Gran Canaria's southwest coast, with the Atlantic Ocean visible from the upper holes and the barrancos — volcanic ravines — cutting through the lower part of the course in a way that's completely unlike anything in mainland Spain or Portugal.

Golf Costa Adeje

★★★★

Manuel Piñero · from £100

Golf Costa Adeje in the south of Tenerife is the course that introduces most UK clients to Canarian golf, and it's a worthy introduction. The barrancos — volcanic ravines — that cut through the lower section of the course create forced carries and dramatic elevations that are completely unlike anything you'll find in Portugal or mainland Spain.
