Río Real Golf

Designed by Spain's number one achitect, Javier Arana, Río Real opened in 1965 and follows a wide incline down towards the sea. Otherwise the course is flat. With wonderful views, well-established trees that offer much appreciated shade, and the River Real intersecting the course at various points golf here is a very pleasant experience.

Holes 4 and 5 run close to the sea and are reached by an underpass beneath the Málaga-Cádiz coast road. The 6th, a par three requires a particularly accurate tee shot to avoid the hillside on the right whilst at the 8th, although it is not especially difficult hole, one must avoid the bunkers which protect a raised green. The dogleg 10th is a pretty par four leading to a spectacular 11th tee which looks down to a green whose access lies across the river which gives the course its name - Río Real.
