Golf de la Cañada.
La Canada has been designed by the famous Robert Trent Jones SENIOR who has designed a number of courses in the area being such names as Valderrama which hosted the Ryder Cup in 1997 and its neighboring course Sotogrande which in itself holds the sherry cup every year to the best amateur in Europe.
Opened in 1982, la Canada was the first and still is the only course to be owned by the municipal of the local town which is Guadiaro, the par of the course is 71 with a total length of 6102metres/6704yards. The course is renowned for its fantastic lush fairways and fast greens giving you the perfect surface to play from.
The course is situated on the outskirts of the local town of Guadiaro, slightly inland but this is an advantage as the views are tremendous giving you an on look over the Guadiaro River and the Mediterranean Sea.
The special highlight of la Canada is arguably the most picturesque finishing two holes on the coast, the 17th being a par 3 over water very similar to the 17th of Saw grass and then once you have got through that, you've got the 18th called la Canada, this is where the course has got its name from.
You have to hit over a big ravine, one shot you will remember for the rest of your life.
We recommend that you hire a buggy or electric trolley if your not accustom to the warmer temperatures.
