The Costa del Sol is one of Europe’s premier golf destinations, with 100 golf clubs to choose from. Most golf clubs have a handicap requirement of 28 for men and 36 for women, but this is not really controlled and a CFP is not a requirement to play.
The climate offers warm temperatures throughout the year, making this region very suitable for golf. July is the hottest month with an average temperature of 28 °C. January is the coldest month with 11 °C. The month of July offers golfers an average of about 12 hours of sunshine. The provinces of Malaga and Cadiz – with their long coastlines – have the highest density of golf courses. An 8.2 on the LeadingCourses website indicates that Andalusia is very suitable as a golf destination.
Living by the golf course?
Why is a golf course property an interesting option for me as a buyer, you may ask? A golf course is excellently maintained every day. Not only the grass on which is played but the entire environment should always look outstanding. In addition, there is always a clubhouse available where you can enjoy snacks and drinks in close proximity to your home. If you are looking for a second home, an apartment or house on a golf course is definitely worth considering. Our top 5 reasons to live on a golf course:- Security above all else Golf resorts generally have their own security system so you can rest assured that your property is well guarded. Gates, surveillance cameras and trained guards, among other things, ensure that no unwanted people enter the property.
