Spain, Costa del Sol
The course winds its way along gentle slopes with the majority of the holes playing alongside the beautiful beach line.
With prevailing winds, synonymous with links golf, often blowing, it adds an element of difficulty to the course, but that will not detract from the experience as you take in stunning views across the Mediterranean Sea.
