Golf: Valle del Este golf course has been very carefully designed by Jose Canales and is one of Europe's best desert-style courses, being both attractive and challenging to play. It has already hosted several tour events. The course is superbly integrated into the surrounding landscape and makes great use of indigenous vegetation. The multiple-choice tees are positioned on small raised platforms surrounded by volcanic rock and the fairways are just wide and generous enough to be relatively forgiving. Water features on a number of holes just to add to the fun! Most golfers conclude that it is 'by no means a walk in the park' but that, on a good day, par is realistic on all holes. On course refreshments are regularly provided by a travelling buggy. There is an excellent pro shop and a very good resident bi-lingual pro. As well as Valle del Este, you also have the choice of playing at Marina de la Torre, in Mojacar, Desert Springs (about 25 mins away) or Cortijo Grande (about 15 minutes away).
