Fuerteventura Golf Club

Set on Fuerteventura's east coast with the Atlantic as your backdrop, Fuerteventura Golf Club is a proper wind test and a great barometer of ball flight and course management. It helped put the island on the map when it hosted the Open de España in 2004 on the European Tour.

It's also brilliantly placed for a fly-and-play break. You're less than 10 minutes from Fuerteventura Airport, with nearby hotels and the beach close enough that you can be checked in and thinking about your first tee shot in no time.

On the course, three lakes shape the round and bring a real risk-reward element into play. You'll see them on multiple holes, either framing greens or asking for a confident carry, so it pays to pick your lines and commit. When the breeze gets up, those decisions matter even more, especially on exposed stretches where club selection needs a proper rethink and even short approaches demand respect.

Expect firm, running fairways in the drier months and greens that reward a tidy short game. The layout offers plenty of variety and challenge for all abilities, but you'll get the most out of it if you play with your head, keep the ball below the wind when you can and accept that par is a very good score when the Atlantic is blowing.

Who is this for?
Golfers looking for a convenient winter-sun option with a recognised Tour pedigree, quick airport transfers and the option to mix golf with beach time.
