There are three main courses in the
Torrevieja area (see below)
but there are many more courses to choose from for those
prepared to travel upwards of 30 minutes.
Please bear in mind that you should always book your round
well in advance to avoid disappointment.
Villamartin Golf Club
The most famous of the three courses, and the host for the 1994
Med Open - attracting such high profile names as Seve
Ballesteros, Ernie Els and Jose Maria Olazabal.
Opened in 1972, this well established course has beautiful
scenery, ingenious design and great challenges. This Putman
designed course has been the focal point of Mediterranean golf
since that time. Sporting tennis courts and a swimming pool,
together with a central plaza of shops, restaurants and bars,
Villamartin can satisfy the most discerning tastes.
18 hole par 72, 6130m Professional/Men/Ladies tees. Driving
range. 10Km on the Cartagena Road, from Torrevieja, turn right
opposite sign to La Zenia.

Villamartin Golf Club.
Campoamor Golf Club
This course was opened in 1989 and is designed to appeal to both
the professional and the amateur. With its wide fairways the
course is actually larger than Villamartin, but consequently
easier.
This well maintained course absolutely must be experienced, as
golfers play next to epic views of the Mediterranean.
It is the most panoramic of the courses in the region, the
expansive fairways, excellent greens and the lakes deceive the
player somewhat. Campoamor will soon be challenging as a venue
for major championships.
18 hole par 71, course 5830m Professional/Men/Ladies tees. This
course is just a bit further up from Villamartin on the
Cartagena Road.

Campoamor Golf Club.
Las Ramblas Golf Club
This difficult course, opened in 1991, has far narrower fairways
than Campoamor, and presents more of a challenge.
Situated between two ravines on the shore of the Mediterranean -
with fairways surrounded by water and picturesque scenery - this
course is a feast for the eyes and a test for the skills. This
course has an abundance of pine trees, ravines, plateaux
interconnected with a natural rolling landscape. This is a
course with "attitude".
18 hole par 72, 5770m course Professional/Men/Ladies tees. In
between Villamartin and Campoamor. Driving range.
