Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club

Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club Golf Holidays

The Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club is located in the beautiful province of Cadiz, Spain. The course gets its name from being situated right next to the coastline with panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean. The Course is located close to 2 airports, with Jerez being only a 30 minute journey from Costa Ballena. Seville Airport is also only 1 hour 20 minutes away, which gives great accessibility when looking to play this fantastic course.

Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club was designed by legendary Spanish golfer José María Olazábal, and he has produced a relatively flat and wide course with slight undulations. Its a superb walking course to make your way round the 27 holes. The challenge here lies in the strategically placed bunkers and lakes dotted around the design, however the course is perfect for high handicappers looking to perfect their game, whilst Professionals will certainly enjoy the stunning scenery and tranquil ambience that the course exudes.

This is a very pleasant course with a superb welcoming clubhouse, and a nice mix of scenery whereby some of the holes run alongside the Atlantic, and others venture through palms and pines. The position along the coast provides the sound of the ocean waves crashing in the background, whilst palm trees are scattered across the layout, giving you the real feel of the Caribbean on your Cadiz golf break. The greens are made up from bermuda grass, keeping them in top condition year round.

The course is complemented by some of the best practice facilities in Europe, including a 120 bay driving range (the largest in Spain) as well as a 9-hole Par 3 course which is maintained to the same standard as the main feature. The short game practice area, including 2 chipping and pitching greens and spacious putting green, will give you plenty of options to master your swing before your round.
