The villas of Azata overlook this peaceful, 18-hole golf course. It was established in 2020. The entrance is on Calle Salvador Fidalgo. The golf architects, Stirling and Martin, have created a very attractive parkland course. It includes undulating fairways and plenty of hazards to test your golfing skills. There are woodlands, sand bunkers and lakes. Throughout the course, there are amazing views of the sea and the Sierra Bermeja mountain range. The natural terrain makes the front nine holes particularly challenging. These greens tend to be narrow and require your most accurate shots.
