The Costa del Sol is known for its beautiful beaches and for a pleasant climate, with more than 300 days of sunshine a year. But beyond its most famous charms, this paradisiacal area of ​​Malaga is a perfect place for another activity: playing golf.

This sport, which has fans all over the world, requires good golf courses, something that is not always easy to find. Fortunately, on the Costa del Sol we find excellent golf courses very close to famous cities such as Marbella or Benalmádena.

Playing golf on the Costa del Sol is easy thanks to its many courses. We recommend these five: Chaparral Golf Club (in Mijas Costa), Santa María Golf Club, Santa Clara Golf Club, Los Naranjos Golf Club (these three in Marbella) and Golf Torrequebrada (in Benalmádena Costa).

All these courses offer 18 holes so that you can unleash your passion for golf on the Costa del Sol. Furthermore, their handicaps are varied; In this way you can choose the field that suits you best according to your level in this sport or your desire to challenge.
