Situated on the volcanic south eastern slopes of Lanzarote, between the small town of Tahiche and the coastal area of El Jablillo, the course at Costa Teguise Golf Club is a John Harris design that dates back to the late 1970s, making it one of the noted architect’s final projects before he passed away in 1977.
The holes fan out from the clubhouse in two distinct nines and, with more than three thousand palm trees lining the fairways, there’s a real feeling of seclusion when playing here, with the next hole only ever revealed after leaving the green and walking to the following tee box area.
The layout can play as long as 6,476 metres from the rear tees so it’s a championship-length course with a slope rating of 147 from the back tee positions. With that in mind, holidaymaking golfers needn’t necessarily expect a stroll in the sun on a resort-style course as Costa Teguise isn’t exactly set up for that sort of game.
Highlight holes include the par five 3rd (starting from a magnificent elevated driving position), the uphill par three 6th (played across a massive black volcanic waste area), and the par four 14th (rated stroke index 2) which features an enormous bunker at the bend in the fairway as it rises up and veers right to the green.
