Costa Teguise Golf – Review and Rating

Translated by AI

Playing the 18-hole course at Costa Teguise is exciting, to put it mildly. Despite quite a few uphill par-4 doglegs, most players find the course fairly difficult, but fair.

Clear tee markers make it almost impossible to go the wrong way, the fairways are in good condition, the bunker sand is as black as volcanic lava and the greens are wonderfully green. Just as green and shaded by the thousands of palm trees that surround the course. Water hazards are conspicuous by their absence, or bone dry.

The routing is very well thought out and the mix of hard and easy holes feels balanced. The front nine is easier than the back, but the closing hole can feel like a clear par, a short and fairly easy five.

It is worth noting that several short holes measure about 175 meters or more! And since the rough is usually crushed lava, an extra sleeve of balls is a good idea.

All in all, Costa Teguise, with all its greenery in the middle of a volcanic landscape and a lovely view down toward the Atlantic waves, is one of the better courses in the Canary Islands. Try it for yourself.
