The golf clubs listed below are just a range of more than twenty five golf clubs that are within an easy drive of Jazmines. There are championship courses, coastal courses and water-filled courses (to terrorise the higher handicap golfers) to name but a few. The one constant is the Costa Blanca weather and there is no need to say any more about how attractive that is! As well as it’s incredible range of golf courses, the Costa Blanca is renowned for a warm, temperate climate that provides plenty of sunshine and good year-round temperatures.
The northern stretch of Costa Blanca includes the popular holidaymaker destinations of Valencia, Denia, Javea, Calpe, Altea and Benidorm. Benidorm, with several high rise apartment blocks and hotels is a busy coastal tourist resort, but within 15 minutes there are picturesque coves, beautiful beaches and charming marinas to watch the world go by. Journey inland a few kilometres and you will be surrounded by hillsides and natural parks adorned with trees of almonds, oranges and olives.

Situated in Moraira and forming part of a country estate this golf course has spectacular views of the Rock of Ifach itself. Designed to be short and difficult, Javier Arana ensured there are plenty of obstacles that take advantage of the terrain along with narrow fairways and well placed bunkers. He also made sure that players would have to use the full range of their clubs and exercise control in the short game.
