In the past few years andalucia has become a paradise for
golf lovers and one of the most importan tareas is the province
of Almeria, whose eastern Levante is expanding for both
professional players and golf tourism. With four operating
courses and two more under construction (Playa De Macenas
in Mojacar) the area offers unrivalled golfing facilities.
This region with more than 3000 hours of sunshine every
year offers the chance to play golf all year round, providing
an opportunity for winter visitors from colder climates
to play our courses.
Another reason for the popularity of golf tourism has been
the excellent communication system within the province,
it is very easy to get to Almeria from most of Europe as
well as the rest of Spain. In addition, visitors to the
province, can enjoy many other activities, such as natural
parks, blue-flag beaches and wildlife pursuits, making it
a favourite destination for those seeking more than just
golf during their stay.
The Marina Golf is located on 36 hectares in Marina de
la Torre in Mojacar, close to Garrucha and right by the
beach. It is the only complex on this part of the coast
that is just metres from the sea and represents a luxury
development full of green spaces and gardens. Here housing
possibilities range from small apartments overlooking the
beach to magnificent chalets with private gardens directly
overlooking the golf course.
The full swing base don Mojacar Playa, originally oponed
in March 2002 to serve the people of Mojacar and the surrounding
areas with equipment, advine and apparel for golf and lawn
bowling. With four golf courses and four bowling clubs it
seemed the obvious choice for a new enterprising business.
Golf is a fast developing business in this area of the
Almeria province and a new sport for the Spanish community.
With this in mind, the full swing offers a range of equipment
