La Torre Golf Course
La Torre Golf is an 18 hole, par 68 golf course that is full of challenges. The golf course is not long but it will require the golfer to play wisely. With large bunkers lining the fairways the golfer must choose correctly off the tee to be sure to place the ball in the fairway. Again, the greens are well protected and golfers must play accordingly to be sure to reach the green in regulation. The most notable holes at La Torre Golf are its 6 par 3´s. Each par 3 is a great hole on its own and when you put 6 of them on one course, the final product is a challenge. Suitable for all golfers it is a top favorite for mid to high handicappers but also caters to low handicappers who must manage their game in order to have a good round.

Mar Menor Golf Course
Mar Menor golf course was originally opened as a 9 hole designed by Dave Thomas later converted into an 18 hole golf course designed by the great Jack Nicklaus. Without doubt this is an ideal resort or society golf course with an emphasis based on positioning the ball in the correct part of the fairway from the tee and then below the flags on the undulating greens. Some of the earlier holes can ‘lull’ you into a false sense of security but when you reach holes 13,14 and 15 all of which wrap themselves around a man made lake, you are quickly brought to your senses. In particular the 15th hole will test your patience as the small landing ‘areas’ from the tees are well guarded by sand bunkers. All facilities available, Club house, Spa …a place to be all day.

Saurines is an 18 hole, par 72, desert-style golf course but with a links philosophy, is designed by Jack Nicklaus. It is designed with influences of the Nicklaus golf course in Lake, Las Vegas. Its main characteristics are undulating fairways and greens among desert dunes, few bunkers and a great 6 hectare lake. Holes 9 and 18 go around the lake, which guarantees an exciting final.
It measures a maximum of 6,498 metres. For long hitters, the par 5 holes are reachable in two, being under 480 metres, but you will have to be accurate as there are hazards left and right of the greens. The three par 3 holes are either long with two over 182 metres in length and although the 6th is short at 126 metres, the shot is played over water to a narrow green.
Saurines golf course is a great addition to the golf courses in this area and is well worth a visit.
A great new course that opened at the beginning of 2011
