Marbella is known worldwide for its glamorous avenues, boutique shops and lavish beach clubs. However, a lesser known fact is that the thriving golf industry attracts 4 million national and international players to the Costa del Sol every year. On this occasion, we will focus on top 5 golf courses in Marbella.
It is not for nothing that the new nickname used among golf enthusiasts to define this Andalusian area is the Costa del Golf, something that has been well promoted by Malaga’s tourist institutions and which positions the province as one of the best destinations for the practice of this exclusive sport.
Today the Costa del Golf has 69 golf courses and a total of 1,134 holes distributed in 16 municipalities in Malaga. Marbella, being one of the most exclusive spots in southern Europe, is the town with the largest number of golf courses in the province.
Marbella has 15 golf courses and 243 holes, which represents more than 20% of the sport’s offer on the Costa del Golf in Malaga. The Golden Triangle from Nueva Andalucía to Benahavís and Estepona has the second highest concentration of courses in the province, with 8 golf courses in Benahavís and 8 in Estepona, respectively (11.6% of the total).
The golf courses that extend along the entire coastal area reach as far as Manilva and the Cadiz municipality of Sotogrande, where the famous Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande stands out.
