Costa Teguise Golf Club

Costa Teguise Golf Club is one of Lanzarote's standout winter sun rounds, a proper green ribbon cut through stark volcanic scenery. With more than 3,500 palms lining the holes, it feels like a genuine oasis, especially when you look beyond the fairways to black lava rock and desert scrub.

Designed by John Harris and opened in 1978, the 18-hole layout makes smart use of the natural terrain. You'll find plenty of gentle elevation changes and angled holes that reward good positioning rather than sheer power. The island breeze is a big part of the challenge too, so expect plenty of thinking on the tee and one more club than you planned on approach shots.

Greens are generally generous but have enough movement to keep you honest, while the bunkers are well placed rather than excessive, ready to catch a loose drive or a bailout that turns into trouble. It's a course that suits mixed-ability groups well, with a fair test for better players and plenty of enjoyment for higher handicaps, particularly if you keep it in play.

Off the course, you're right by Costa Teguise's beaches, bars and restaurants, making it an easy base for a relaxed golf break where the non-golf bits are just as straightforward. If you're building a Lanzarote trip, this is an easy one to pair with beach time, nightlife and quick transfers.
