Lanzarote Golf offers one of the most distinctive rounds in the Canary Islands. Set above Puerto del Carmen, this Ron Kirby design cuts through dramatic volcanic terrain with wide Atlantic views, natural elevation changes and a layout that asks plenty of your course management from the first tee.
The course sits on a rugged hillside above Puerto del Carmen, the island's most popular resort town. Kirby, whose Canarian work also includes courses on Gran Canaria, shaped the routing around the natural landscape rather than against it. Rather than forcing the land to fit a resort template, the layout works with the hillside, which gives the course its character and its challenge. Stone walls that have stood for generations cross the fairways. Black lava waste areas frame the holes. The result is a course that feels genuinely rooted in its surroundings.
Its location is a practical bonus too. The course sits less than 10 minutes from Lanzarote Airport and within easy reach of Puerto del Carmen's hotels, bars and restaurants, making it a straightforward choice for anything from a single round to a full golf break.

Golfers staying in Puerto del Carmen, couples after winter sun golf and groups looking to add a memorable round to a Lanzarote trip.
Who is it best for?
Best suited to mid to high handicappers and confident ball-strikers who enjoy elevation changes, strategic tee shots and a course with plenty of visual character.
